Tough Mudder October 2015

Derek competed in another Tough Mudder on Saturday. It was my first time seeing the course. I have a lot more respect for Derek's ability to complete it. When we were on the bus being transported to the location (big, hilly fields in Coatesville), I commented that it must be a young man's game and he agreed. Unlike triathlons, there were few "older" people out there.

Do you see those tough-looking faces?

NE PA in the Fall

A couple weeks ago my sister, Amy, told me she was planning a surprise birthday party (in northeastern Pennsylvania) for our friend, Christy. I didn't think we'd be able to go with it being Sunday afternoon and the children needing to get to bed early for school.

As it turns out, I got to go...all by myself. Though I was there for less than 24 hours, it was still delightful. I helped celebrate a dear friend and enjoyed the beauty of autumn long before it touches our home in southeastern PA.

The first few pictures were taken in cloudy weather, they still show some early fall colors. Be sure to scroll all the way down for a couple of friends and family pictures.

It's nice to be on a dirt road and not worry about traffic.
