Work will win when wishy washy wishing won't

Six with Tom in the glorious fall weather!  LoVe It!  

Today we heard from our son in Denmark that he has been transferred for his last 6 weeks.  I'm sure that is hard to have a change like that right then, but he has a wonderful attitude and is doing some great things!  Can't wait to see that boy!

On my own with my own thoughts today.  Kind of peaceful.  Enjoyed the river trail along with many others.  I'm always surprised how bundled up everyone gets when it's 50 degrees though.  I'm in shorts and short sleeves and they are in layers of longs!  

Beautiful days don't get much better than this.  Absolutely gorgeous outside today!  Tom and I enjoyed the trail and there are only a few grasshoppers left...that helps make it even more beautiful!

After my run I usually take my doggy out for a walk around the neighborhood.  Today I was lucky to bump into 3 gentlemen from my neighborhood and sat out and chatted with them for a bit.  Ben, Phil and Richard.  Two of them were having fun telling me all about their running and pole vaulting days.   The other one had fun telling me his "running from the cops" stories.  They all had lots of stories to tell and were so excited for a new audience to listen!  They were giving me quite the chuckles!  The thing is, two of them are older and have health problems and the one that is probably 8 years older than me is dying of liver cancer.  And yet, today as they talked and remembered their glory days they were all very happy and you would never know that any of them had any health issues at all.  It's amazing how stopping to listen can help someone in need.  I need to stop and listen more often.  Not only to neighbors but to my very own wonderful loved ones!

Just an all around, feel good run with the hubby in the beautiful fall weather today.  Not much to talk about but lots to enjoy!

Tom and I have been taking advantage of him working at home and going out in the later morning in the sunshine for our runs.  This morning we decided to get out in the dark morning with the SF gang.  It was still shorts and short sleeve weather though so it was nice.  And the big ole moon up there lighting our way for the first while was quite enjoyable! 

Not many with our group this morning, just us, Hal, Doug and Lori and their son,Tyler.  Even though there weren't many in our group today there were lots of people out and about.  Lots of fun to see people enjoying health, beautiful weather and beautiful surroundings!
