Want to Thank everyone that was able to make it to the Annual Christmas Breakfast last Saturday at Lamasco, always good to spend time and catch up with everyone while not moving, we were able to deliver a lot of toys to the Downtown YMCA for the Angel Tree, and those breakfast burritos looked amazing, not sure if there is any reason to change the location for 2016!!
Thanks also to Curt, the crew at Ultimate Fit and Jim Bush for putting together what looked to be a great run and Christmas fun on the Eastside Saturday morning, still can't believe nobody brought me back any chocolate.
