Hello 2017 ....

Hello and Happy New Year.  

I ran out the old year  with my Newbie Trail Run.  So it was the perfect way to ring in the New Year.  January 1, 2017 found me retracing my steps  from December 18, with a longer distance and a shorter time. Yes...  The Hills really are alive with the sound of... everything.  Thank goodness it was not as cold this time.  But I also didn't stop for pictures.  (See last blog post). There were actually little differences except the dam was not as vigorous....

Until the floods of January 2017.  If you get a chance check out the Dam at Lake Clementine, Auburn CA now.   While we need the rain I know of many that have property loss, Damage, and couldn't even get to work for the eroded roads and flooding.   I send my best thoughts and wishes and prayers.   I wish that Mother Nature could learn a bit of balance...but I suppose she is only as nutty as.... Me.

What the heck is balance anyway....?

2017 - Resolutions...you ask?  Not really but no resolutions is no reason to NOT TRY.

So more healthy living, Yoga, Run, Walk,  Smile, Write, Read, less fat, less carbs, less wine...and a nice fresh fridge full of veggies.  So far this year has me making Asian foods.  Anyway possible to get those nutrient rich veggies into the body.    I made Thai Pad, two difference versions of fried rice, Chow mein, Jerk Chicken and fresh green beans.  Not in the same meal.     The new year has me consuming less, buying less and just focusing on family and my violin.

More violin and soap news soon...

Peace and love and just keeping being beautiful.

Less words and more pictures soon.
