Early July covers some things . . .

Posted on July 7, 2026

A lot has happened in early July: we attended the Savanah Bananas baseball entertainment event, went to the Prefontaine Classic Track Meet, volunteered at the Butte-To-Butte run and saw an impressive drone show following the first night of the track meet. The Savanah Bananas were, to my mind, meant to be akin to the Harlem Globetrotters basketball, but with baseball as the sport. It was “played” in the football stadium as well and it was loud . . . 90 decibals for most of the event. Was it worth it? Personally I don’t think so, but it was different and there was some fun in that. I’ve been working on my omelets lately, including the one above with bok choy, blue cheese and a…

I’ve reason to believe we both will be received in Graceland . . .

More images and thoughts on Sweden . . . . There were many of these EV Volkswagen vans throughout Stockholm . . .. One more! This is one of the food trucks in action from the earlier post. There is something efficient about these vehicles when they are out and about doing their “job.” And of course the Abba Museum. There was also an IKEA museum in another part of Sweden that we unfortunately did not make it to (I would have enjoyed that). This is the Vassa ship at the Vassa Museum. It’s a bit of a long story, but the Cliff’s Notes version is that it sank in the harbor and they pulled it up and have been “restoring” (my word) it…

A few more from times gone by . . . Banana bread – easy recipe that is super good . . . ! *Hat tip* to Nicholas Triolo – thank you! New Years Eve – First Run – I had not ever run the 10k before, only doing the 5k with the kids in the not-so-long-ago-that-feels-so-long-ago past, but this year I ran the 10k. Starting at midnight it was a wonderful evening to start off 2026! Tried a beard again recently, but let it go (for now) . . .and moved back to this kind of a set up for whisker removal. I forgot how nice it is!

Surgical support, trail running and a birthday

Posted on October 13, 2025

My brother had to have a detached retina put back in place and to be honest, I admire his grit through this one. I learned more about eyes than I knew and learned more about my brother than I knew too. This required some trips up to Seattle to see him through and I managed to get in a few trail runs in the Issaquah Alps trails system, a set of trails just east of Seattle in the Cascade Mountain foothills. Plus running with my regular “Noon Group,” along with the recent trail race, the Rainbow Ridge 20k. My brother, pre-surgery under a wonderful warm air-filled blanket. Cozy and comfy is part of the prep! Tiger Mountain is part of the Issaquah Alps and…
