Since we now have an Olympic Gold Medalist living on our street, our neighborhood got in the spirit to welcome her home. Brandy, Jack’s mom, got balloons for all of the mailboxes on the street and a lot of people, including myself, pulled out our non-existant artistic talent and made signs. It takes a lot for me to do something like that, but I thought that I could do something for an Olympic champion. We were expecting her home yesterday evening, but she took a detour to the Late Show with David Letterman before coming home, so she didn’t get home until after 10pm. Hopefully now that she’s home, she can get some well deserved R&R.
