We went and our lad was much less cranky about it than the last couple of years. I chalk that up to it actually being warm, and better organization so he didn't have to wait in line forever for events. he actually had a good time this year.
This year's hero was a tiny little guy who did the fifty yard race in the under eight division. He started out at the finish line with a big grin, took off with his wheelie walker, and finished dead last, still with a big grin, and the whole crowd clapping and chanting his name.
