When I run, I think. Last night I was thinking about the turmoil in our world - the terrorist attacks in our country and abroad, the conflict between our elected representatives and the folks they're supposed to represent, the wave of anger that sometimes feels like it's going to drown our country...it was pretty dark. … Continue reading 50 essential 4-letter words

What I learned – Charleston edition
Five hours and two quick flights later, it is possible to be parking your rental car on King Street. My curls look best when my hair is dirty and salt water and sand are my chosen hair products.

It was a three-day trip and we packed in a lot of time outdoors, a couple of beaches and bike rides and a few margaritas. There were friends in Provincetown to drink with and the weather … Continue reading Tidal time
