Everyone!
Do not miss next year's event!
The Chesapeake walk was wonderful The forecasted rain did not appear, and the brisk wind did not deter any of us from enjoying an inspiring day. Minnie did, in fact, organize a great event and Charity is right about everyone 'walk(ing) away with something.'
Coming face-to-face with some of those who have offered love and support on this board was down-right fun......! Tom and I got to the crazy-busy restaurant and looked around and was I excited when I recognized Danny Boy from his profile picture! That began a great evening...
Barb's family was well represented - great, fun people and what an amazing fund-raising job they did! Dan and Marcee certainly add spark, and not enough can be said for Minnie and her crew! Rosie's presence made me think that there were OCF angels sanctioning the entire event. All in all, we met great people!
Carol, so sorry we didn't get to spend time getting to know you, but Baltimore is not so far away! Will the Nationals play the Orioles??? We'll meet you up there!

Met a woman from the community who walked with her family - she is a breast cancer survivor and was so happy to be able to contribute in some way to the fight against 'our' cancer. She said she'd be back next year for us.

Best news for us is that Tom managed to walk the entire 10 miles! My legs wouldn't carry me past 9, but I certainly cheered him on that last leg. He took a loooonnggg nap afterwards!
Minnie and Danny - your courage and outlook really provided him with renewed optimism. Rosie and Barb - your stories reinforced our resolve to never second-guess ourselves when it comes to our health and well-being!

I do hope there are more events soon! I'll continue to sell pies and quiches for more contributions - - I've got a ways to go to get to Barb's contribution!
Love you all!
