A Visit from Afar
The other week, Brent and I had heard from a little birdie that our friend Fe and her husband Ken were in town from the Philippines. I sent out a message to her not knowing if she would have time for dinner or even a quick visit. We lucked out! Last week we were able…

Bozeman Half Marathon 2012
On Sunday morning September 9th, I got up early with Brent still in bed and made my way down the stairs for a quick breakfast. I sat in the stool tired and wanting to go back to sleep. It really was not that early as I wake up early during the week days. I ate…

Cakes
On Saturday, Brent and I had some friends over to celebrate his birthday. I decided to try and make two cakes. I spent a few hours bumming around the kitchen using dish after dish. Good thing Brent stayed on top of dish duty! My first cake was Dulce de Leche. It was a white cake…

A Walk Downtown
As Brent already told you, the other night we took a walk downtown just to get out. The smoke has been so bad this week and summer that I have had to be extremely flexible with my runs. We skipped the run this night in particular because we couldn’t see the surrounding mountains. This was…

Update Regarding the Last Grand Teton Relay Post
I was just minutes away from publishing my last post about the Grand Teton Relay. I had typed about 1,300 or more words and wrapped up the last of the events. I decided to add some photos and some where along the way, I deleted all of the words. It was sad. Brent thought that…

Grand Teton Relay – Day 2
I laid on the hard ground in my sleeping bag on top of the tarp we had brought. I found a comfortable position, but was unable to sleep due to the fact that I was paranoid that my alarm would not go off. I might have dosed off for a minute but my alarm did indeed go off. Krista’s…
