Heat is Neat!
A couple weeks ago, Jess and I awoke to some pretty cold temperatures in our home, somewhere in the range of the mid 50’s. We proceeded to turn up our heat, which didn’t really respond. So we brought in some extra heaters that I was using while working in the garage and plugged them in.…

Christmas Tree Hunting
Along with the annual Bozeman Christmas Stroll, another tradition that Jess and I have been faithful to is the procuring of our seasonal, indoor evergreen. We have decided that whenever possible, it is best to go to the natural habitat of such a specimen to ensure the full authenticity of the act. As we have…

Not too sure how I feel about this…
On Saturday, I convinced Brent to run part of my planned twelve mile run. I figured I could come up with a nice six mile loop that would bring us back by the house. Brent was unsure if he could really run any more than this. In the last month, he has only been running…

Christmas Stroll
Jess and I have made it a tradition to go to the annual Christmas Stroll in downtown Bozeman. If you’ve never been to Bozeman, it has a beautiful, historic downtown that the city closes a section off for various events throughout the year, this happens to be our favorite event. There is something to be…

Flexibility
Flexibility, that is what I have decided that I need throughout this winter. The other day I wrote a blog pretty much just complaining about the effects of snow on my running. Those days that I have my runs planned and then they get ruined by weather are hard on me. I look forward to…

The Magician’s Nephew
A couple Friday nights ago, Brent and I went to a fundraiser event for Clydehurst Christian Ranch. Clydehurst is a bible camp that I attended in middle school and high school. I always loved going for that one week each summer. A week of riding horses, hiking, swimming, and several other random activities. What teenager…

It’s a love hate relationship between me and the snow.
Yesterday afternoon I was looking outside my window at work watching the snow start to fly. It looked beautiful, but I had skipped my lunch run in hopes to get a run in with Brent after work. If we do not run together, he just does not run. Which is fine. That is why I…

The only allowed exception in early holiday fare
As each store continues to light up with ads for Christmas, catering to kids, moms, grandparents, even dogs, I notice that with each passing year, the commercialization of the holiday season comes earlier and earlier. Why do we need to stock up on Christmas trinkets and bobbles nearly two month ahead? It’s not like we…

Relaxing up North
This past weekend, Jess and I took a trip to see our good friend Scott. If you don’t remember, he’s the one that came with us during our trip to Portland last month. He lives on a farm outside of Shelby, MT. It was great to get away for a weekend and relax. We left…

Our Trail or Bear Territory?
On Halloween night, we went out to our trail. We are trying to get all the runs in on our trail before the snow starts flying. Which normally, has already happened. We have had a long fall here in Montana and Brent and I have been loving every bit of it. The colors on our…
