 Today, Saturday November 3, 2018, was the 33rd Cliffhanger Run...a 5k, 10k and 1 mile kids run along beautiful Cliff Drive.   The weather was perfect for running.   These are just a few of my shots for the day.  All of the shots can be seen at:dl=0https://www.dropbox.com/sh/5nsfqen8mgy7l40/AADD-SW0Q7NElFecMFXNsSNja?dl=0
