When was the last time you had a facial? It’s been a long time since I had one, which almost explains why I refused to abandon the idea of indulging myself during my holiday vacation even though it took some effort to get appointments.

Time is short

As is often the case, the options for the holiday weekend were numerous and making … Continue reading Crafts and craft cider

The race, Rosendale Runs organized by the Shawagunk Runners group, was essentially a rail trail course, with a couple of miles at the beginning on the road. It was my first time running this race and I really … Continue reading A half dozen halves
