I guess I didn’t do too good a job of beating around the bush in my last post. Two of you guessed it right off the bat! Yes, I have begun traing in order to WALK a marathon. There’s a whole class of folks out there called Marathon Walkers; I think I’m about to becomeContinue reading “Yup, it’s a Marathon!”

Announcing…. something!
Since last I wrote, another week of work has concluded, and a second has begun. Over this past weekend, I’m afraid there were no interesting hikes to report. It was a “2 Day Weekend”, so we tend not to hike those. Since I get a 3 day weekend every other week, we save our hikesContinue reading “Announcing…. something!”
Picacho Peak Peak
Wow! Has it really been over 3 weeks since my last post? I really hadn’t intended to go so long between posts. But, it’s been a bit of a weird month, and maybe that is why. Well, then, I guess I had best get y’all caught up! August 9 (the date of my last post)Continue reading “Picacho Peak Peak”
On the Trail Again
It’s been an active week for me. Last Saturday, Scott and I got up early (actually I got up at my usual time, 5 am – Scott got up early) and we loaded the girls in the car and drove over to La Llorona Park. Last November I wrote about La Llorona Trail, you canContinue reading “On the Trail Again”
Stop Shouting!
So, here’s the dish, faithful followers: On Saturday, July 26, 2014, I got… hearing aids. Yes, hearing aids. I’ve been having problems for years with my hearing. Long before any audiologist detected a need for hearing aids, I’ve known my hearing was off. I say off, because I wasn’t sure it was a hearing loss!Continue reading “Stop Shouting!”
Let’s Reacquaint Ourselves
Ah, yes. Yesterday’s poem. I suspect my brief assay into poetry should best be laid to rest. It was a tool used to inform the world that I was about to make an effort to rekindle my blogging efforts. But, looking at it nearly 24 hours later one thought crosses my mind: “Eh, not soContinue reading “Let’s Reacquaint Ourselves”
I am
I am surrounded on all sides by beauty… the majestic spires of mountains purple mountains, yes majestic. In violence forged, yet they still my heart. The tortured twisted branches of windblown mesquite patiently biding. Endless blue skies massive storm clouds bearing monsoon rains sprinkles, really. Yes, on all sides, surround by beauty, I am.
A Day in the Life
It stormed last night. I woke up just before midnight in response to a biological imperative, and was treated to a disco dance stage of strobe lights. Imperative resolved, I lay in bed, listen to the thunder and the downpour, watching the flashes of light. It was quite refreshing. This morning, before leaving for work,Continue reading “A Day in the Life”
Timed Tests
And now, another month has passed. And what a month! So, today’s post will mostly be a “Get caught up with Eric’s life” kind of post. Just before my last post, Scott relayed an interesting job posting from monster.com to me. I took a look, and it seemed interesting. So, I applied. On the ThursdayContinue reading “Timed Tests”
In Which I Whine About Whining
It’s amazing how time gets away from me! Here we are nearly to the end of January, and my blog seems to have slipped away from me. To be honest, I don’t like that anymore than some of you. I miss my blog. And I miss my readers! It didn’t dawn on me until justContinue reading “In Which I Whine About Whining”
