Or, The Story of the 35th Anniversary of My 18th Birthday, Jersey Shore Style I sought this photo out for a post over at CivMix and every time I look at it, I can’t help but smile.

Bozen Kill Preserve
I’ve had a really busy month. There was a wedding in Buffalo, a weekend wine fest in Rhinebeck and two Albany events last Saturday.

I remember, as a kid, thinking that seasons were seemingly endless, especially summer. Summer was so long that I would have sworn the flowering bush in our front yard … Continue reading March on
Syracuse Half Marathon – 11/11/18
While I don’t expect I’ll ever be blasé about running 13.1 miles, I do feel increasingly comfortable with the distance. I won’t say it’s easy, but it a manageable distance that challenges without much post-race discomfort. Yesterday, I ran my 10th half, an accomplishment I never could have predicted when I did my first in … Continue reading Syracuse Half Marathon – 11/11/18
