Where I've Been

Autumn has proven to be a busy time of year this go-around. I do think however, that when one is too busy adventuring to find time for blogging, it can only be considered a good thing. And that, my friends, is essentially the state of things.


Following is a list of what has been keeping me busy in the past several weeks. They all really deserve blog reports of their own, but said reports may or may not materialize. Depends how much adventuring is in the near future, I suppose.



1. Long trail runs through Desolation Wilderness with Jamie


2. The Long Beach Marathon


3. The Girls on the Run 5K, Halloween edition


4. A long weekend of outdoor bliss in Zion National Park


5. A 5-day school field trip to the Marin Headlands Institute

Ginny Weasley graces the GotR 5k. My friends thought I was a total nerd, but I got tons of recognition and compliments on the costume from all the kids in the race. Learned this day: Running fast in a pencil skirt is not easy.

The beginning of The Narrows, ZNP. This weekend included a day spent exploring a magnificent slot canyon, and a day running through paradise with good friends. Life doesn't get much better.

As a teacher, you know that when your classroom looks like this, you're doing something right.
