Mama's House

It's the first time I've seen it since the year she died.

That was in 2001.

18 days after 9/11.

But August 17 would have been her 92nd birthday. I took these pictures that morning.

Butterflies du jour, 30 juillet 2007

Butterfly bushes do their job with such ease...

I'm with the band

This is my husband, performing big band vocals on the "other side" of the Bay. He can sing like an angel.

HCS at WRRC WDF

Translation: Howard County Striders at the Westminster Road Runners Club Women's Distance Festival 5k. This was last week...

& I walked this one. I was the penultimate finisher.

CBRC at AS WDF

Translation - Chesapeake Bay Running Club regulars at the Annapolis Strider's Women's Distance Festival 5k.

This was last week - but I have done nothing since. My running is nil...

HAPPY Birthday, Joes EVERYWHERE!

On the route of AS WDF 5k

That's the Annapolis Striders Women's Distance Festival 5k.

I walked most of it, but ran a little.

41+ minutes for a 5k.

I am hoping to reclaim my body, but sometimes...I just despair.

Shane / HCS Women's Distance Festival 5K

Shane, aka NEEDLE-NOSE. The Sheltie next-door.

There goes the Pack, leaving slow wimpy-gimpy me far behind in the 5k

It was a LONG 5k for gimpy-wimpy gal. They all are nowadays.

But there were some pretty visions en route for Second-Hand Rose, my "new" not-so-new camera.

And I got to spend a little time with MY TEAM. :-)

Will I EVER be able to RUN again?
