September (2013) . . . 

August (2013) . . . "Two Irish Runs with DCI in the middle" . . . August was a busy month for Rase Anne at Pioneer however we participated in our 4th "Dublin IRISH FEST 5k" . . . . on August 1st. . . . August 10th, travelled to Indy to meet Joe and Judy and attend the Drum Corps International Finals . . . then on August 25th, (day after my 69th) Rose Anne and I ran our 4th "EMERALD CITY QUARTER MARATHON" with good results! Sadly, August ended with the passing of our beloved Butler Bulldog Mascot, BLUE II. 

July  14 . . . "Happy "8th" Birthday to Riley Wayne" Nana and Popo joined Riley for his Birthday party at the Raceway in Franklin . . good time for Riley and his buddies.

July 13 "Run with Beethoven 5K" . . . . "Can you out run Beethoven?" Complete the 5K course before the completion of the playing of Ludwig von Beethoven's "Fifth Symphony" and be presented with tickets to a Westerville Symphony Orchestra concert. Ted met the challenge and completed the course (seemingly shortened) in 29:04 at a 9:24 pace. Perhaps hearing the symphony inspired me! Great fun . . . and  my bib was drawn for the raffle . . . . appropriately, a Beethoven "Bobblehead" which sits in a place of honor in the office!

July (2013) . . . "Singing Buckeyes" compete in the 2013 Barbershop Harmony Society International Chorus Competition in Toronto Ontario. Rose Anne, Paul Kulik and Keith Ebright and I journeyed to Toronto. Good food, singing, and a great trip. Buckeyes finished 23 out of 32 for a good showing!

 Performed at the Air Canada Center, home of the Toronto Maple Leafs.
