1:02:18 (31:49/30:28). Not a bad run. I did not get to go to my favorite park last night for my run -- it is just getting dark too early and I couldn't get home from work in time. But, I had a nice run anyway. It was 92F, but it felt much cooler ... this morning at 5AM it was 62F - winter is here ;-). On our way to finish up some paperwork for our new house -- it has been pretty drawn out because there were some property line issues that came up. In the end, we will be buying a house (on 1 acre) plus another 1.25 acres of adjoining undeveloped land. The whole thing used to belong to the house but there were some weird (and perhaps shady) deals going on a few years ago and the land was split and sold. Both properties were then foreclosed and someone else bought the house, remodeled it, and then when we went to buy it we found out (and the sellers found out from us) that the driveway actually was on the "other" lot ... not a happy time for any of us ... in the end we are buying into more than we bargined for, but it cost the seller a little more than hoped. Moral of the story -- "do your homework"/"caveat emptor". The adjacent lot is a mountainside of saguaro cactus ... it is spectacular. The house is in the Tucson Mountains with incredible city and Catalina Mountain views. Best of all, it is much closer to work, so commute time will be reduced considerably. It is also much closer to my favorite long run place (Saguaro Park West). I will miss my favorite park - as it will be much too far to get to now. Happy Friday bloggers.
