I'm sure that many people interpret autumn as the final punctuation to summer's end. I prefer to think of it as more of a transitional time, an opportunity for appreciation and acknowledgement of a summer well-lived. You know me, I'm more a half-full kind of girl. While it is impossible to deny the shift in … Continue reading Falling in love again. With fall.

Meals come at odd times and both nights and mornings are much later than usual. We seem to use a lot of gas - for the … Continue reading Summer must end
A day of mud and water and friends
Warrior Dash 2012 - check. What a blast! Aside from the no joke 1+ mile hill that starts the course, that is. I had heard some grumbling about the previous day's Dash.
