A bit of this and that : I didn't have enough of one kind of photo to make a dedicated gallery, so here are some odds-'n'-ends of late.

Carlsbad Marathon 2008 : Jesse ran his first road race today. Instead of my method, which would be to start with a 5k, then do a 10k, and then a half marathon etc., he went all out and started with a marathon. [For the record, I have done 5 km and 10 km races... would like to get up to a half marathon some day.] The race was in Carlsbad, and I went up there with him to do the driving and to cheer him on. I'll give away the ending--he finished in about 4 h 45 minutes, and even increased his pace after the 22 mile split and picked up extra speed heading towards the finish line. He didn't walk any of it. Awesome! He did say at the end that he wouldn't have been able to run even one more mile. Note for all photos: the all-white bibs are for half marathon runners, the light blue-gray bibs are the 7:30 am start marathon runners, the green bibs are for the 6:30 am start marathoners, and the orange bibs are for the 5:30 am marathoners.

Alice McGregor : I had my camera next to me and saw Alice trying so hard to be cute that I decided to take some photos of her. She is normally not very photogenic, but she came out a bit better than usual today.

Alice in a box : Alice the cat loves sitting in boxes. Even planter boxes suspended next to our deck railing, apparently. I discovered this because I let her play around on our patio a bit. After rolling around in the dirt, lying in the sun and chewing on a basil plant, she climbed into the empty planter box, admired the view for a bit, then settled down in the bottom of the box. It was really hot out, so it must have felt a bit like an oven in there, but then experience has shown that she likes getting really hot (e.g., she loved sitting in front of the hot air vents when I lived in Madison, until she got so hot we called her "Roasted Kitty").
