After a couple of lackluster seasons of cross country skiing, March has been redemptive and the timing couldn't have been better. For me, that is. On Sunday, March 10, I ran a half marathon under challenging conditions. The next day I recovered with a 90 minute massage and the day after that we received 20" … Continue reading 6 days of skiing

Snowverwhelmed!
We got a lot of snow last week, more snow than I've seen in a few years. As I got ready for bed more than 48 hours after the snow first began, I could still hear snow removal happening - blowers and plows and trucks battling the nearly two feet of powdery whiteness.

I don’t remember the last … Continue reading When music makes one a little sad – The Cohoes Music Hall

Keep in mind, of course, that you're toting a ridiculous amount of … Continue reading Yurt adventure
10 Things I discovered Columbus Day weekend
Troy has some really nice homes (while running a 5K). Apparently when he isn't playing golf, Donald Trump plays"pussy grabbing." It's a sport that only gets discussed in locker rooms, but is played where ever famous men find vulnerable women. Sounds fun, right? It is possible to check out events in three different counties in … Continue reading 10 Things I discovered Columbus Day weekend
