Shout-out to John & Kathy @bigrigbook for the wonderful visit today. Thank you!
Dropped off hundreds of books at Open Books today. The warehouse people were not polite. Unusual. Great organization!
After running out of fuel today, mobile repair started me up and did not charge me! This fill up should last awhile.
Here is the elite wave from our PR Mile event. We had 10 waves every 10 minutes starting with the 70+ age group.
The fastest runner (4:20) from our first PR Mile event tonight. A great success that exceeded everyone's expectations
Just got 4 cases of this awesome book from First Book. The kids are going to go crazy over it. We could use 20 cases!
Served at Heritage Trail Elementary's family day yesterday. Great school with many above average readers...love that!
I was running past Hawk's coach Joel Quenneville's house this morning. I hope he gets some help cleaning this mess!

Served a day care business tonight that hosted an event to promote reading for parents and their kids. A great time!
Many people donate books to us and now it was our turn to donate (2000 books) to a new literacy initiative in Pilsen
Check out the cool shirt the assistant principal, Rudy Olavarri, at Otis P Graves Elementary, made for me...himself.
9 hours into the event and still going strong. Almost halfway to our $2000.00 goal. Rain tomorrow may be a problem
