Volunteering at the Race

We volunteered as a family at the Firestone Run for Autism.

The girls and I set up and manned a water station in downtown Frederick while Chris was about a mile away directing traffic as runners raced across intersections.

We were grateful for a warm Saturday morning as we have experienced colder days in previous years.

There were lots of speedy racers and some who simply walked.

The girls handed out the water and I stood a little further down the block with a garbage bag for the racers to throw their used cups in.


We laughed as we watched an older man drive by a couple of times in his hearse, complete with a skeleton in the front seat. 

The girls wanted pictures taken in front of a dinosaur statue across the street. They thought it was funny that the lady who took their picture asked if they were triplets. Well, they were all dressed the same!
