Another day, another national park. Right now we have hit up 2 and I think by the end we will be at 4? Pretty proud of that fact. Today was a lot of driving – but also a lot of killer views. Bryce is like nothing else in the world – and has to be…
Today was a true combo of driving and hiking. The hike we did reminded me that yoga is not necessarily cardio. I obviously made it through and we were always going to be fine, but man I was winded for the first twenty minutes. Despite waking up to some consistent rain, the day turned out…
The week started off a bit slow…. because we still didn’t have electricity from the last nor’easter. In the event there was any doubt about the need for a generator, that is gone.

It is sometimes hard to believe that Eleanor and I have been roommates for so long. I wrote a blog post about her after her first year and when she first showed up – and this feels long over due. As I write this, she’s sleeping on the pillow next to me. Not next to it,…
