(Yes I am obsessed with the move -- I watch it at least three times every Christmas Eve-Christmas Day marathon.)<br /><br />ANYWAY, I'm interested in this semi-organized run of yours if you want to put me on the 'maybe' list. But, I'm also trying to talk my husband into the Drumstick Double at the Turkey Trot this year, and he's not really a runner -- so I might have to pick one to try to pressure him into. =)Kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07931595438523054106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592755595247951740.post-83365905509862244732013-09-23T08:50:46.598-04:002013-09-23T08:50:46.598-04:00That is pretty neat!

Might be able to run with you though.<br /><br />Cleveland tries to claim Christmas Story, but the real setting is based on Hammond, Indiana (I think he calls it Hohman in the books, which is a main street in the city.) Jean Shepard, who wrote the book on which the movie was based, grew up there. He was a few years older than my Grandfather, but I like to imagine that he hung out with Ralphie and the gang back in the day. The school looked just like the one my mom attended for a couple years (it was torn down a few years ago for a new school.)protometal @ clippinalong.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00136868195365402745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592755595247951740.post-62130358865075083662013-09-22T14:13:50.792-04:002013-09-22T14:13:50.792-04:00A Christmas Story is my favorite holiday movie! $...A Christmas Story is my favorite holiday movie! $54 is expensive but I feel as though I really need that medal... it is a major award.Jerilee E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02357989788411109029noreply@blogger.com
