DetailsWe finished our business on the East Coast, though you only saw the personal parts of the trip, and flew back to Kansas City this afternoon. I’m finally starting to feel better.

We agreed to speak at the event and had the Kennon & Green Foundation make a donation to the fund. I was grateful that I…
DetailsWe were supposed to have breakfast with Jimmy this morning but we ran late because I was still really, really under the weather and trying to drag myself out of bed.

DetailsWe had dinner scheduled for tonight with Ashly, Ian, and Jocelyn. After buying our five toe running shoes, we made our way to Jocelyn’s condo a few towns over. It was rush hour, which delayed us, but we arrived and got to meet her roommate, see where she lived, and catch up before piling in…
