Return To Racing
I did it! I went out for my 44 minute run! Go me! Man, that was tough. And nope, Jerry, no All Star Game for me. It would've been fun. That's a great field.

Yay for the 44 minutes. Go OB !!!
PAD-- "The museums were pretty good. If you go to the science museum, go on a school day. Too many kids yesterday for me. The DMA is pretty good as museums go and it's free except for special exhibits. It was my second trip there." Oh thank you for the museum reviews. Definitely school day for me then, and knowing the DMA is mostly free is making it seriously appealing!
Within a stones throw from the DMA there is the Nasher Sculpture Center $10 and The Crow Collection of Asian Art free, both worth checking out. Several performing arts venues on the same street, and Clyde Warren Park sometimes has activities.
What else is on the reading list (if you don't mind sharing). Haven't read much in the past few decades. I did like books like Willa Cather "Song of the Lark" and "My Antonia" and the Harry Potter books.
It's an always evolving list. A lot of the older works are free ebooks that I got on my kindle. I read a lot. I try for a book a month. I've been alternating a current book with a classic.
