Dog Days of Summer

Now begins the long hot stretch of summer following the 4th of July that flies by with disappointing rapidity. I had intended to have a great holiday in the park enjoying myself and getting a bunch of great pictures, but it was not to be so. By the time I was done with my morning … Continue reading Dog Days of Summer →

Summer Solstice

Summer is rolling along and the longest day of the year is already behind us. I don't know why, but both the summer and winter solstice dates have a profound effect on me. Just knowing that the days are getting shorter, however imperceptible, adds a bit of melancholy to my spirit. But there is still … Continue reading Summer Solstice →

Ultra Running 2014

Despite a bout of food poisoning I managed to complete my article on this summer's ultra running schedule in Colorado. I was pleasantly surprised to see that the grueling endurance sport is catching on in my state. It has been a while since I have run an ultra and I was happy to find that … Continue reading Ultra Running 2014 →

Snowy Trio

Something must still be stirring in my soul though … Continue reading Trail Running →

Quiet Time

Amazing what a little quiet time can do for the imagination. All the medical crisis we have encountered in 2014 have drained my strength and my creativity leaving me bereft of ideas for Examiner articles. I have struggled to come up with enough ideas this year to meet my one article a month minimum. However … Continue reading Quiet Time →

Fox and Deer

Interesting how things work. For weeks I have been seeing deer in the little woods on the way to the coffee shop and the day I decide to start bringing the camera along the deer disappear. Undaunted, I have been taking the camera along faithfully as I push the wheelchair on our errands. It finally … Continue reading Fox and Deer →

Making the Best of Things

Memorial Day weekend, the unofficial start of summer. As usual the skies have opened up with a deluge of rain as if heaven itself is mourning the loss of so many brave men and women in battle. For me, today is day four of Making the Best of Things (MTBOT). Tricia's rehab is coming along … Continue reading Making the Best of Things →
