Walk around time

We made our second appearance in a row today at the Northwest Pilot Project's annual walk-a-thon in the Park Blocks at Portland State. People of all ages and from all walks of life walked, ran, or rode their motorized wheelchairs around the loop for an hour -- raising thousands of dollars for an important Portland charity.

Once again, we were blessed with exquisite weather, and friends of the NWPP provided all sorts of refreshments for everybody, and prizes for the best fundraisers. These guys supplied the soundtrack -- classic sounds that warmed us up and kept everybody on the beat for the whole event. Good vibrations all around.

Sounds good.

My main accomplishment of the day was walking from the Zoo to Pioneer Square starting about 6pm, stopping for a little of the memorial concert for Les Sarnoff. Then it was on to dinner and a Max ride back to the car at the Zoo.

Talk about a flawless Portland weekend.

The arthritis walk was Saturday morning, along the Willamette Greenway rallying at Willamette Park. That was my gig, this weekend and a real pleasant 5K for a good cause as well.
