Saturday Activities in Bessemer

Saturday morning started with the Bessemer Hometown race. Mom decided on the 2 mile race. The course was downhill for the first half, and uphill for the second. Even though the race was early, it was already really hot.

Mom is getting her tunes ready.


Runners before the starting horn.



Mom's cheering section.



Running uphill for the finish. Mom placed third in her age group, only about 20 seconds behind second (and the water bottle prize). Overall finish was in the top third. Not too bad.



After everyone cooled down, we headed to the park where the Ann Arbor hands-on Children's Museum had all kinds of science experiments for the kids to participate in.



Antacid bottle rockets.



Fun with magnets.






Finally, we got to go and visit our cousin, Lucy and have dinner at her house. What a fun day!
