May 24th, Thursday

Ran the 56 east run & added on the Old Carmel Valley loop for 7.71 miles in 1:12:03.  Going to take tomorrow off for travel up to Wine Country.  My friends get a house every Memorial Day weekend and I missed it last year due to graduation being that weekend last year.  Looking forward to some nice peace and quiet.  I don't even pay attention to where exactly we are staying this year as a friend is picking me up at the Oakland airport and we are driving up from there.

Finals start tomorrow for the seniors, so this is the beginning of the end for them.  Some awesome kids as usual and will miss them but it is time for them to fly and leave the nest.  Time to see how they will do on their own. 

Here over the next week or more, I will leave you with some great quotes for the graduates:

You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself in any direction you choose.
You're on your own.
And you know what you know.
You are the guy who'll decide where to go.
~Dr. Seuss
