Scenes from a run
I finally decided a couple of weeks ago to get off my lazy behind and start running again. It’s been far too long, and I really don’t have an excuse not to. And I can’t wuss out after a week, since Darryl goaded me into doing the Race for the Cure on May 8th. I [...]

The beauty that is in my front yard
I don’t ever remember noticing saucer magnolias until college, when I fell in love with the massive one in the library courtyard at Cal Poly. This particular tree is out in front of my house, and I didn’t notice it until about a week ago. I so love these things. If you haven’t ever seen [...]
