The grand majority of the pictures from this blog are from the folder 11-23-08, but there is one picture from the folder 11-25-08.
The pictures in the folder 11-23-08 are from when Sara, Jay, and I went to see Willy and his friend Kristy run in the Turkey Trot at Living History Farms.
The Turkey Trot is a cross country race ran in November when conditions are often quite cold and muddy and snowy or rainy.
I don’t think Willy has ran this race since then, which kind of disappoints me.
An observant person might be able to pick out Annie Buchmiller in these pictures:
The cribbage board was made by my Dad. To this day, I still don’t actually know how to play cribbage, however, by posting this picture back in the day, I got one of my favorite comments on a blog post:
Well, that’s a pretty cool design, but REAL cribbage only goes to 121 points… your board there goes to 133. Not a standard cribbage board but lots of points for originality!

Thanks Joe! from Cribbaholics. I hope you are doing well to this day.
By adding these pictures to the Photography 139 Gallery, I was able to restore the following historic “An Artist’s Notebook” entries to their original glory:
The Turkey Trot
Next Saturday’s walk down memory lane will be a bit complicated, but it will involve a fundraiser at the Roland American Legion, some United Way Stuff, and hats.
I liked this collection of photo memories. Confused about the running through the mud in white dresses but..oh well.
If I remember correctly, all those girls were from the Central Cross Country team. They all went to thrift stores and bought second hand wedding dresses to run in.
