Farmington Days Run on Saturday!
One of us did the 5K and one of us did the Half Marathon. Can you guess which one I did?
I actually did more of a 5K walk than a run, but I beat my time from last year by over 2 minutes.
Ken did well in the Half Marathon, finishing in 2:07, and getting 3rd place for his age group. Notice the medals in his after race photo.
In the background of these running photos is the new Farmington City Hall. For all of you who are former Farmingtonites, what do you think of this new building??
Later in the day, we got a personal tour of the new city hall from no less than the actual Mayor of Farmington. He had lots of excuses - or should I say reasons - for the unattractive mismatched architecture that does not match the normal Farmington style. It was interesting to hear other Farmington residents' comments on the building. Apparently, they share my low opinion of the new look.
Update on a totally different subject: My pseudo-retirement is over for a while. I start a new job tomorrow as a Consumer Compliance Specialist with the Federal Reserve Bank. They made me an offer I couldn't refuse. I'll be posting updates on this new adventure soon.

Not the building design I would have chosen. Glad you did well on your walk! How did dad do?
Dad finished the Half in 2 hours and 7 minutes. Good enough for a 3rd place medal in his age group. Not sure how many were in his age group because the printer went out. We'll have to wait until the results come out online.
Looks like the schoolhouse from little house on the prairie. Not really that good looking.
