Half Marathon

Melissa and I ran a half-marathon for Halloween so we could eat all the candy we wanted the rest of the day. It was good times and it motivated us to get out and exercise.

We had some good fans cheering us on as well.

Maybe we will do it again sometime. We shall see.

Webb Family Picnic

Here is a map to the park. Looking forward to seeing you all there!

Hogle Zoo

For all those who live in the Salt Lake area or will be in town, let's enjoy a day at the zoo together!

We'll head to the zoo right as it opens at 9:00 am, hopefully beating the crowds and the heat. Let's plan to meet inside the gate at that water ball sculpture thing. Pack a blanket and a picnic lunch (or you can buy lunch) and we'll find a spot in the shade. We'll meet around noon to eat if you don't want to come right at 9:00. Please pass along the invitation to all of your siblings and others who may not be frequent readers of this blog. Looking forward to seeing you at the zoo!

This Just In...

This was in an e-mail that was just forwarded to me.

Saturday August 22^nd will be the annual George F. Webb family picnic. It will be held at the Canyon Rim Park the East area. Probably 5:30 – 9:00pm. I hope you all will try to make it. More information will follow, for now just reserve the date if you can.

Uncle Dave's Surgery Updates

I'll keep a running update of Dad's status here in the comments over the next few days. Here's what has happened so far:

On Christmas eve, my mom heard dad making strange noises in his sleep (aside from the usual strange noises), and after elbowing him and yelling at him, realized he wasn't breathing. She got up and pounded on his chest and yelled at him some more and called 911. He wouldn't wake up for about 5 minutes, after which he appeared to have some type of seizure for another few minutes. When that was over, he woke up and was surprised to see my mom standing over him with paramedics and police rushing up the stairs. He walked out to the aid car by himself, and after tests at the hospital, the doctor thinks that his heart probably stopped for a few minutes.

Yesterday an angiogram revealed that his heart will require either a triple or a quadruple bypass. Due to other health concerns, this will not happen until at least Tuesday, maybe Wednesday. I'll keep posting here as we know more to make it easier to get the word out.

Other than the whole almost dying thing, he feels fine, and is anxious to be up and walking around. The nurses keep on telling him to get back in bed. If anyone wants to talk to him, call Swedish hospital (206-320-2000) and ask to be transferred to his room.
