New York was too much, what with its heat waves and crowded sidewalks.

So we took a train, and then a car, and drove until Canada.

(Not having your passports means Canada is the end of the adventure.)

Unfortunately, the weekend ended and we had to come back.

Running in the Park

I'll go ahead and say the backdrop for my summertime running is number one.

NUMBAH ONE.

This song, it never gets old. Never ever.
Other things that never get old? Bicycle rides through CP, with a new bike basket in tow.

My love, CP

'Growing is forever,' they whispered.

Occasionally there's a part of me that feels a twinge of longing for living in the mountains (or the Redwoods) again.
But don't tell Manhattan, please. I'm sure she'd be furious if she knew.

Bag of Hammers

The wind today was so blustery, I blew away. My neighbors finally found me crying in the alley and returned me to my apartment.

Not true.

I did, however, almost lose my bags and scarf to the cruel and cold Winds o' Harlem.

Whale Watching

The trouble with whale watching is now when I see programs on Animal Planet or Discovery I'm going to be all, Nope, still not as cool as seeing whales IN PERSON.

Nature and I, we get along quite well
