Despite this snow-less winter, Jeter and I have been spending a lot of time at the golf course. Instead of skiing, though, we run over trails and on paths which I’ve never explored before without my skis. It’s been a good consolation for a frustrated cross country skier and a dog who loves water, be … Continue reading Could you be love?

Sweet love
Today's run was brought to you by thoughts of love and dessert. Or maybe I should say, love of dessert. As Jeter and counted the miles, I considered my tendency to generally be a fairly generous person.

Five years ago I bought a super cool motorcycle style jacket.

It was probably the best article of clothing I ever bought at Marshall's and it … Continue reading Ode to my (p)leather jacket
