As promised today’s Major Sponsor announcement. But first, a brief field report from the
Bar None. I can see my breath as I’m typing this. Linda, Jedediah, and I had a neophyte, rookie, beginner, greenhorn night. Snuggled down tight under several rashers of blankets.
Rule #1 for 2014- Check the level in the propane tank every 30 days. Heat and our gas cook top depends on it. Help is on its way this morning, as good a story as this will be down the road we’re ready for it to end. Thanks to Bob over at Knudsen’s for putting us on top of his Monday morning list. p.s. Heat is on at 9:00 a.m.!
Now the real business of the day. Nebraska Run Guru Events, LLC is proud and happy to announce that Omaha Steaks has been added as a Major Sponsor for the Ni-Bthaska-Ke Trail Runs!
