Moose Run







In August, I believe it was the 29th, Mary and I went to Red Lodge to participate in the last 5k event of the Summer. It was a lovely day. We both had good times. I forgot my camera and didn't think I'd get any pictures, but there were quite a few people up there that we knew. Okay, Mary, who knows at least 1 person everywhere we go, knew quite a few people up there. I just knew a few. I planned to meet with Megan Peterson, a girl I visit teach, she's a true blue, die hard, runner. I thought I'd see her at the start and finish. However, unfortunately for her, she'd been down with a GI thing for the week and she ran with me the whole way. It was nice to have company. Mary stayed with us for about 2 minutes then took off. She found a friend, and they walked for awhile, until Megan and I caught up to them and then she took off. I think she finished about 5 minutes before I did. Not my best time, it was fun and uphill for the first half which made a nice downhill for the last half. Who knew I'd love to run? If my mom could see me now!
The following Monday, Red Lodge got a foot of snow. Amazing. Also, thanks to Anna Hanna for the photos.

Catching Up 2013

I have done a few things around the house lately and thought I'd show them here.  First, for my birthday, I got a 1950s credenza from a yard sale for $15.00!  Yay!  I also got a "fainting couch" from an Estate Sale in great condition and perfect for my sewing room.  So, I added both to the sewing room , which took a lot of rearranging, and badabing, badaboom, a fabulous new look: The view from the door, to the left. Panning to the right. Continuing to the right. The sewing machine right next to the door.  The ironing board stored.   Super comfy fainting couch.  Perfect for napping while I watch TV. The corner behind the door. One Sunday, while listening to the talks in Sacrament Meeting, I heard this great quote from Plato regarding self-control.  The talk was about fasting.  It was a really good talk.  So, I asked, Sister Gina McQueen for a copy of the quote and cut it out in vinyl and hung it on the ceiling going down the stairs.  Chris sa

Pumpkin pie

We got one pumpkin out of our garden this summer.  It was smallish.  I cut the corn stalks and tied them together and put them on the front porch with the little pumpkin next to them foe decoration for October.  November 1st I threw out the cornstalks and moved the pumpkin to the other side of the door, and I thought, "I wonder what it takes to make pumpkin pie from a real pumpkin."  So, thanks to google, I found a  Website , and, voila!  Mike and I made two of the most delicious pumpkin pies in the history of our pumpkin pies!  No time to take a photo, one is history, the other is in the freezer!
