Jason, Congrats. The first thing I did after finishing and locating mel was to check and see if you did. Was nice to see you today.Doug.
Arthur Ashe once said that “Success is a journey, not a destination. Running 114th Boston Marathon “All marathon runners are dreamers; we are not practical. The hours we spend every day, every year! The strength we expend over long lonesome roads and the pot of gold we aspire to receive for it all! The end of the rainbow, is a survivor’s medal.” Bertha Kelley, mother of Johnny “The Elder” Kelley
