I hope it's not a shock to anyone, but I am blogging two nights in a row. I have done well this week and have logged in 10 miles so far. I want to devote this post to a dear friend of mine who passed away recently, Mr. Harold Ritchey. Harold was the County Clerk in my county and had been at that post nearly as long as I have been alive. I remember went I went into his office to file to run for City Council a couple of years ago, he recalled that the council was his first race. He did better than I and won, but nonetheless I learned a great deal about public service from him.
People from Lawrenceburg mainly know Harold as the man who runs down the streets of the city. He waved to everyone and every car he saw and they waved back. Tonight I felt like Harold Ritchey. Running down main street I waved at every car I saw. Some people honked the horn, but everyone waved. This is a true testament to how friendly Lawrenceburg is. So if you see me running down Main Street Lawrenceburg, KY USA be prepared to wave, because I'm waving at you.
