Rock and Roll Marathon 2011!
Dusty signed up to run his second marathon in beautiful Savannah, GA. I was lucky enough to tag along and be the all important spectator and marathon shopper while he ran 26.2 miles. Hey, it's a tough job but somebody's got to do it!
thank you to Nana and DoDaddy for keeping the kiddo's for Dusty and I to get away for the weekend.
We got to Savannah on Friday only to find that the Hyatt had overbooked and we would be staying in a "parlor" room. The parlor room is basically the living room/kitchen to the suites on the top floor.
 |
| Here is our view from the 3 huge windows. Right over the river! Friday night there was a fireworks show over the river that was beautiful. |
 |
| The Parlor has coffee beans in the full size kitchen with a grinder/coffee pot. We thought this was great until we made two pots of disgusting coffee. It was obvious we did not know the first thing about measuring coffee beans. |
 |
| Here is our conference table |
 |
The flat screen over the fireplace.
Oh, and notice the couch....that would be our bed.
Yep that's right, the parlor has everything just NO BED!
|
 |
this is still part of the parlor room....a library.
Just in case you run out of breathtaking parks to walk through, haunted and historic tours to go on, or you have tasted all the delightful dishes this city has to offer....you can sit in your room and read a book.
Seriously, the room was great! We couldn't help but laugh about it! |

Enough about the parlor
Back to the reason we came...
Here is Dusty at 6am in the freezing cold dark start line. |
 |
| Runners in the corrals and ready to RUN! |
 |
| READY, SET, GOOOOOOO.... |
 |
Just a little winded at the finish line.
YAY DUSTY YOU DID IT! YOU ROCK!

Tired spectator and VERY tired runner!
We had a fabulous time. Savannah is such a lovely city. Hope we get back there again one day!
