1... 2... 3... PULL!!!
Chris and I went to a charity event yesterday, as part of the TalkDelaware.com team at the 10th Delaware Air National Guard Plane Pull for Special Olympics. We had a lot of fun hanging out with all our friends while we waited for our turn pulling a C-130 plane for 12 feet.
I wish I could give you more details, but it was one of those "you had to be there" things. I hope we get a chance to hang out with them all again soon.
