BevLive: Soldier Hollow, Day Two

Happy days here again. Stars are in the heavens all is well.

Mirk ran seventh in the morning and got an 86. Happily for me, the many 85's didn't quite beat us out of first place. Amanda came the closest but knowing the fragile state of my ego she showed some charity and came second with Clive.

The running was quite good as a couple of rain showers and generally overcast skies kept things at a much more comfortable temperature. There was a great audience of thousands undeterred by the showers.

Sue and I went to Park City for an oil change on my "old" truck and had lunch and did a little shopping. Great place, tons of neat, expensive little shops. Alas, while we were gone we missed one of the day's high points. Apparently, distracted by the conversation at the exhaust Amanda sent her dog prematurely to remove the course director's sheep while she was trying to shed. But I'll let Amanda tell you about this in her blog.

Great dinner tonight–we grilled steaks and local corn. Sandra and Sue are cleaning up while Amanda and I blog.

Tom Wilson got in with Sly, and Fansie got in with his second dog. Suzy Applegate had the best run of the day with an 84 and no pen, capturing the 5th and final spot in the double lift from today's runs.

I promise some photos tomorrow. Check Amanda's blog for a link to her great pictures.
