One thing that really shocked me when I first moved to Georgia was the evening thunderstorms. Wow, what a light show they give you. I thought I’d take a little space here to share with y’all what these are like. I took these pictures last night (June 27, 2008), starting around 9:30. The sun was [...]

Comments(3) So there I was…Lunchtime yesterday. Heading out for my run, and at the last second, decided to do loops around our complex instead of my usual route. It’s a nice 1.2 mile loop that has some flat sections, so I could work on my walking form. It started off good…the first lap went with no [...]
Read More..>>Ah, last night started with good intentions. Headed to bed early, planned to sleep in a little bit, then head out for a run. Come 4:30 though, I was awake. But it’s not as bad as it seems, since I was woken up by a big thunderstorm. I was awake enough to decide to grab [...]

What a week it was – who knows who the dang mole is? In the first challenge, just about everyone did something to make you think its them: Bobby, who said he [...]
Read More..>>Okay, anyone who has known me long enough to ever have a conversation about reality TV will know that in my opinion, the best show ever made was The Mole. Unfortunately, it was canceled after 9/11. Anderson Cooper made a great host, and the game was very mentally challenging. (The Amazing Race is a very [...]
Read More..>> Comments(3) This morning, as a rare treat, GUTS (Georgia Ultrarunning and Trailrunning Society) had a monthly training run on our side of town. So, being the card carrying member that I am, and having never gone to one of their runs, I figured it sounded good. They were going to the Suwanee Greenway to run. It’s [...]
