Eight down, one to go...

Spring is a busy time in the life of an environmental nonprofit! I have participated in eight events since March 31st and have one more to go next week. So far! This weekend we participated in the Nashville Asthma Walk on Saturday! It rained.


Not sure if you can see it in the picture, but everything at our booth was soaking wet. It rained (hard!) from the time we got there at 7:15am until about 9am. I ended up throwing away some of our stuff.

I stopped for a brief minute to get my picture taken with Snow Bird. He's the Channel 4 weather mascot. Honestly, I just wanted to be under a tent for a minute.

The walk was at the Nashville Zoo. So after standing in the rain for almost two hours, it let up and we walked three miles through the zoo. This giraffe is as close as he looks... no zooming in! He came right up to us! He kept looking at the ditch between us and him and seemed to want to cross! He never quite figured it out though.

Jeff got me a gift card to Blue River Canyon Day Spa for my birthday that I've been saving. So eight events down, one to go on May 14th... massage will be schedule for May 16th! Packing, loading up, and breaking down these booths have worn me out!
