Today was, as is every Friday, "Red Friday". We all wear red shirts and/or pants, to show our patriotism. It is to honor our troops and the shed blood.
Today, all our exercisers honored our troops by wearing RED. It was 100%, and it was a real show of patriotism. We are so proud of our "early bird" exercisers. It is quite a feat, to get out of bed at 5am, and dress and go out in any kind of weather, in order to keep our bodies in good health, by making it our daily routine to exercise. I wake up anywhere from 3 on, and get up before my alarm goes off, which is a crowing rooster, and it is tooo irritating to hear in the wee hours of the morning , so I try to avoid it!I now know why that commercial says: "killing the rooster", or something like that, ha!

We have exercisers of all ages and all walks of life. We have one in her 20's and another in his 80's. We have 2 lawyers, a Real Estate broker, and his wife, a Fishing Guide, 2 teachers, a Funeral Home worker/ a potter, Pastor/Counselor/Carpenter/Painter/Floor Sander-Refinisher/you name it and he does it. Nobody but this man can do this; he is so faithful in his attendance and works the entire 2 hours we are open. He is so strong and physically fit, that he can work 15 hours a day and get a few hours of sleep and right back to the exercise room again. He is a true example of what exercise can do. He and several others are told by their Doctors to continue doing whatever it is you're doing. We have a Beautician, Nurses, Secretaries, Accountants, Investment Broker, Doctor's spouse, and some I can't think of! Each one has a story to tell, and some have a lot of stories to tell, ha, and we will be livening up this blog as we go.
