The end of the world has come and gone. It’s a good thing I got a run in beforehand. When I came home, three children were geared up for Armageddon and I caught what may have been my last photographs. Fortunately, today's miracle comes in the fact that the good earth seems to be willing to put up with us for a while longer. Thank goodness, because I ran a new trail today and I would really like to do it again. The kids really did have a twinge of fear that this could really be it. I promised them that if we survived, we could have ice cream and their fear turned into anticipation. It looks like tomorrow will bring another sunrise, and for that, I am very thankful. Good thing life was back to business as usual within minutes of Armageddon.

Seems kind of sad that kids are subject to this kind of scaring.

Yes, but I try to keep things light for them despite the world we live in.

I think that kids usually handle this stuff with a fair amount of grace; it's the religious fanatics who can't.
