The last time I ran up, and I do mean up, at Thacher Park was over the summer during ARE’s trail series. The weather was fine and the people were nice, but the course began with a murderous hill which made me a bit cranky. I don't mind hills*, but, please let me work up … Continue reading Squirrelly Six – 2015

Pride (In the name of love)

I was there to accompany one of … Continue reading Fathers – the ones we have and the ones we don’t

Despite the threat of tornadoes, a couple of the (formerly) McGuire's girls and I dropped in for the weekly cookout at the DelSo's own Cheese Traveler. What? You didn't know they had a dinner menu of delectable, seasonal items available for dine in or take away?
