Wow, January! You were really something. During your calendar page time, I made my way home from California, spent an evening with friends in New Paltz and had a quick getaway to Miami Beach. There were numerous runs, some yoga, lots of golf course walks with Jeter and the first ski of the season. It … Continue reading (The) freedom of obligation

Universal thoughts
On Sunday I took a walk at the golf course and found the most fantastic piece of deer “shed.” It was lying in the meadow, completely exposed and bleached white, a four-point rack from a buck. I could scarcely believe it was just there in grass, there where no one else had seen or taken … Continue reading Universal thoughts

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
Three current crushes…November edition
The Manhattan at New World Bistro Bar. I’ve been lucky enough to have the same bartender on my last two visits to NWBB, and she makes a dynamite Makers Mark Manhattan that is exactly how I like and order it - up and teeny bit sweet. I’ve been too captivated by my companion(s) to get … Continue reading Three current crushes…November edition
