I have been running for about two years now. I started walking a lot the summer of 2007 and had worked up to a very slow jog by Labor Day of that year. I still, other than my shoes and some Under Armor that was my kids’, do not buy specialized gear to run in.… Continue reading Fantastic New Company – to me
No, I am not in Florida suddenly. I am referring to those plastic shoes everyone wears. I cannot manage to wrestle my feet from my Birkenstocks but found this image to be interesting over the weekend.

Two pluses right off the bat for Kathy Buckworth‘s book. Then, I started reading. I opened up The BlackBerry Diaries while having lunch at Smart Monkey Cafe… Continue reading Book Review – The BlackBerry Diaries

West Fest 7 – yes, it is in its seventh year – is taking place this weekend behind the Cyber Cafe West. Now being a bit older, I remember when the Cyber Cafe… Continue reading West Fest 7 – Deni Bonet

My Salsa Recipe Juice of one lime Three tomatoes – chopped small and de-seeded as much as possible (I don’t really worry about this like I probably should) Corn – one ear of… Continue reading Fresh Salsa
I have a thing for taking photos of fog. Yesterday, while taking pictures from inside my mailbox looking out, I also got some shots of the road and the fog. I have some older pictures of the fog also. So, for those of you who live where there is no fog, Happy Foggy Morning!!
