Such a pretty spot for lunch!

20 miles today!

Productive Day

Today they took out the rotten sections, and replaced them with new fencing. And yes, he's being productive too - it all needs to be burned and someone has to supervise the fire!

They have no idea what this weekend's adventure will be, but they don't care - they wanna GO!!

Look who joined us for our walk this evening...

North Norway

Every year!

This was a nice treat!

Family Reunion Fun

Ayiyi! Those trails are tough!!

Tonight, despite the heat & humidity, we ran at Shepard's Farm. Neither of us really felt like it, but we did it anyway. The trails are beautiful, but boy did they kick my butt again! Of course, he looked like a galloping gazelle, while I felt like a lumbering ox. Ugh. At least I didn't quit - that's all that matters!

"Make new friends, but keep the old..."

Sunday was busy day!

We also hiked up Hawk Mountain! This view never gets old.

20 miles together!!

He needed to get his long run in, so we kept him company on our bikes.

They couldn't resist racing with me!

This is such a fun event and we had a great time running it with our friends. I felt successful because I was able to run the majority of the course for a change, and did it in only 46 minutes! They were successful in winning prizes for first place overall and second place in his age group. Great job guys!!

Good-bye Sweet Ol' Girl

We knew we were on borrowed time with Maggie, but not that the time would be so short.  We will miss her terribly, but she's not in pain anymore...

I never have to drink my coffee alone...

What to eat when you've just returned from Italy?

Tacos, of course!

My first group bike ride with the Slow Spokes was fun!

Comfy Kitty

Messy, but pretty!

Mount Chocorua

Waiting out the storm...

A rather fierce thunderstorm put a halt to our 17.5 mile ride(me)/run(him) this afternoon! Before we found shelter in this culvert under the highway, we were pushing through a virtual wall of water. It was crazy!

Our Good Luck Charm

We keep finding this horseshoe in different places when we hike...

I finally got my hands on a copy!

I'm just bursting with pride!

Harrison Run by the Lake 5k

This was my fourth time running this race, their fifth time doing it together, and the littlest one's first time running it! She wanted to quit, but she didn't and finished strong!!

Happy 4th of July - we're celebrating by sweating; I mean hiking!

Dogs don't like fireworks!

This extra long holiday weekend has meant 4 days of people shooting off fireworks to celebrate. While I'm glad that they are able to have fun, I wish that they would consider the doggies in the neighborhood. We're listening to all the sled dogs barking and whining in fear, and wishing that we could reassure them it's going to be okay. They don't understand. Poor doggies!

Guess what's on the agenda for this afternoon?!

He's teaching me, so that I might be able to race later this summer!

Getting it done despite the heat!

11 miles, and at least I could catch a breeze on my bike!
