Pay attention.

Be astonished.

Tell about it."

There aren't enough days in the weekend.

     It is a beautiful weekend.  Yesterday we got in a short run/walk with our running group and visited with a lot of people. This morning we took a bike ride around the neighborhood.....another sign of spring.....Real Estate For Sale signs are popping up everywhere!  Later today, company is coming that we rarely get to see....a cousin of Dean's and his wife.

    Last week I showed a picture of our Grandson playing tennis.  Here is a picture of our Granddaughter from yesterday. They are growing up much too fast.


Update time.
     The Lower North Fork fire near us is 90-100% contained.  The body of a missing woman was found in her burned home, bringing the death total to three.  Those evacuated can return home.

     The body of missing Ultrarunner Micah True, aka Caballo Blanco, was found last night in the Gila Wilderness area in New Mexico. Cause of death is not yet known.  There were no obvious signs of trauma. Micah was a running humanitarian who dedicated his life to helping the Raramuri (Tarahumara) Indians living in Copper Canyons, Mexico, who are now enduring the worst drought in Mexican history.  I will update as I learn more.

Saucony suggests that you can honor Micah's life by donating to http://www.norawas.org/  which is a U.S. based non-profit (Friends of the Running People).

Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life.  Don't be trapped by dogma--which is living with the results of other people's thinking.  Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice.  And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become.  Everything else is secondary.
