MarkBennardo
Another day on the road. This time for only a few hours. Still, it's good to see family & friends I haven't seen in a while.
| MarkBennardo Dinner w/old college friend @RHerdman at sports bar. Hadn't seen each other in 22 years. Good to connect again. (But the Mets game sucked!) |
|
| MarkBennardo "Journey to the Center of the Earth" = mediocre. I definitely like Brendan Fraser's acting much more when he's NOT in the action hero role. |
|
| MarkBennardo Chick-Fil-A for lunch. My brother knows the owner of this store (great guy) and he gave us our food for free. Can't beat good food for free. |
|
| MarkBennardo Hanging with my brother, the right Reverend Dr. Tom Bennardo. |
|
| MarkBennardo Vantage Point is up on the DVD player. Hope it's good. |
|
| MarkBennardo Amazing Thai spicy seafood soup this evening. Leaving for Columbus (OH) in the morning to visit with my brother and family. |
|
| MarkBennardo Ohio to Chicago (home), back to Ohio in two days. Whirlwind trip, but a wonderful time celebrating the life of our friend, Eileen. |
|
| MarkBennardo Flying back to Chicago for the funeral of a close friend. Sad day. |
|
| MarkBennardo Good Thai food lunch with old friend, Jim MItchell (from The Chapel, Akron). Tom Yum soup is one of the most wonderful simple joys on earth. |
|
| MarkBennardo Saw "Get Smart". Quite mediocre, but not horrible for a mid-summer diversion--especially since I went in with low expectations. |
|
| MarkBennardo Chick-Fil-A for lunch. They don't have these in Chicago. Nice talk w/Manager. Great fast-food dining experience. |
|
| MarkBennardo @allaboutav I'm so proud of you guys! You know what they say, "Once you go Mac, you never go back"! |
|
| MarkBennardo Bowling with extended family. I beat my bro-in-law handily. He's so competitive. Bowled a 179. Might be my all-time best (pathetic, I know). |
|
| MarkBennardo Connected with old friend, John Moyer. Hadn't seen each other in nearly 16 years. He hasn't changed a bit. |
|
| MarkBennardo Good talk with @MikeFoster about his keynote for MinistryCOM. Gonna be awesome. You should come www.ministrycom.org |
|
| MarkBennardo Great meeting with Steve MacKenzie today--part visit, part business. Working on the new launch. |
|
| MarkBennardo Italian Fest was great. Good food, fun music and lots of Paisans! It was good to not be in the minority for once. |
|
| MarkBennardo Vaca Day 1: A little bored. Going from "red line" to standing still requires some adjustment. Good to be with family. Italian fest tonight! |
|
| MarkBennardo @dawnnicole From combat boots to high heels. That's quite a transition. Did you also have big hair? |
