Good news. After a variety of shore-to-ship communications, and a protracted, tedious dropbox segmented download, the photos from the recent cruise my Mom and I took have been saved. I’ll eventually go through and pick out a few great ones to post here… and I owe a bit more detail on the World Famous Disney […]
I left all areas North of the Mason/Dixon line almost 25 years ago. There was a return to Boston for a few years when a relationship got serious with a girl there but the truth is, I’m not really a Northeast kind of guy. It’s a fun place to visit… but perhaps best visited in […]
I hate wearing pants. Not all the time mind you. Just when I’m running. I actually LIKE wearing pants otherwise. I hate my chicken legs. But when I’m trying to cover distances at a running pace, well, pants-less is the way to go. Shorts, yes. But pants? No. And yet, when the weather is cold […]

There’s talk of sub-freezing temperatures at the starts on Saturday and Sunday… and chilly rain […]

It really don’t matter if this guy opens my head, either. ‘Cause all I wanna do is go the distance. — Rocky Balboa, Rocky (1976) If people were peanut butter, Sylvester Stallone would be creamy and I would assuredly be super chunky.

Tripped and fell this afternoon on a “gentle” recovery run. My wrist broke my fall; I don’t think it’s broken but it sure hurts like hell. I am posting the photo in black and white to supposedly desensitize the blood. Wish it were chocolate syrup…
Due to technical difficulties beyond my control, I’m going to split this into a few posts in the hopes I am able to get the official photos from the trip before too long. It was a heartbreaking discovery to come home and plug in the USB stick we bought with supposedly all our Shutters photos […]
