Rocks

I've always enjoyed photographing dead trees... I feel like I'm making a little transition to rock formations now...





And I like life on top of some rock formations too ;-)!

Happy Thanksgiving!!

Well I didn't have a traditional turkey dinner but enjoyed Chicken Marsala, nachos, chocolate cake, pumpkin pecan pie and apple crisp nevertheless.... And obviously no holiday is complete without getting out in the woods, at least for a few hours!

First snow in Albuquerque!



I have so much to be grateful for,... I am counting my blessings,... especially after my dad just spent a few scary days in the cardiac ICU. He's home now and recovering well!

A -late- Halloween posting

I wanted to write about Halloween as I want to post this picture...
We didn't dress up but didn't look usual either... ;-)!



We had so many trick-or-treat-ers (300-400 I'm guessing!) I had to rush to the grocery store halfway through the evening to get a few bags more candy and at the end of the night we just had 2 suckers left! I do have a sneaking suspicion some of the older kids might have paid more than one visit.....

Practice what you preach!!!

For years I've taught patients to stretch and stay flexible.... For years I've ignored much of my own advice and did too little of it... Well I think it's finally catching up with me! I'm probably as active as I ever was in my 20's and 30's but recovery rate is so much slower and aches and pains and soreness pop up more than I'd like.

So I've started doing yoga a few weeks ago and can already feel the difference with this great body - mind practice!

Here's to another 40 years of physical activity!
