Today my wife and I participated in the Memory Walk for Alzheimer's Research. The crowd was fairly large. My estimate is around 1000. There were several groups participating. Some were from health care providers, some from churches, some in support of a family member.
Judy's Team won the coveted Spirit Award. This award went to St Barnabas Nursing Home.
This year the Memory Walk set up personal websites to help participants collect contributions. The highest total collected on the internet was by a dedicated Memory Walk volunteer whose husband is suffering from the disease. She collected over $1100 on her website.
It was a beautiful cool autumn day for the 1 mile walk - 4 laps around the Chattanooga Lookouts ball field.

Richard, it looks like that was fun and a great way to pass time on such a beauiful day.....and all for a very good cause.

Bo,
It was fun. Also seeing many people you know from other things at this walk, just gives you something else in common with them.
It was a beautiful day.
