Milk none time is a step up from plain donut time, steak time, and vanilla Ben & Jerry's ice cream time - all of which have occurred during my absence.
Not so sure penny princess will be coming home!

Somepuppy is having a good ol' time at doggie camp. I was texted this picture from the camp director with the caption - milk bone time!

Day #238: My first tent
Here's a pic of my very first tent. I got a good deal online. Sarah and I were supposed to go camping last Saturday, but we chickened out due to cold weather. It was supposed to be below freezing! The coldest it's been since we've been here!

Day #236: Fall, oh how I've missed you
I've missed fall the last 2 years :( That's what happens when you live in Arizona. But not this year!!
Here the leaves are changing and the air is crisp and cool. I love it!
Sarah and I have been running at a nearby state park enjoying the fall weather. I'm not looking forward to the more boring Tucson scenery compared to the fall leaves.
Here are some pictures I took today while out on a walk. There were tons of families out enjoying the nice fall day, as well as many cameras out to catch natures beauty.
It's relaxing until my allergies kick in and then I get a sinus headache at home, but lets just ignore that part. :)

Day #235: Marathon Training Update
Sorry for being MIA. I'll try and catch up tomorrow.
For today - I have marathon training statistics update for you. Below is a picture of me, holding up the number of miles I ran today! We are now into the official training schedule. I run 4 days per week with one of those being a long run. Today was our long run. It was beautiful fall out and COLD! But I made it. Pictures of fall to come soon as well.
First to answer Aunt Ed's question from a while ago - my new pair of shoes will last for all of training and the marathon. So that's a good thing. :)
So in addition to pre-marathon training to where I am now - I have run/walked a total of 113.5 miles!
Along the way I did have some more aches and pains. One day my IT band syndrome was so bad, I couldn't run. It hurt too much. I've been working on stretching more and did have one of the physical therapists at the hospital do some taping which helped some. Today my legs got tired during the last 1/2 mile, but It felt good and I knew thats when change happens. My muscles are learning to put up with more endurance and pressure. Right after the run my knees ached, but they are feeling fine now.

Day #234: Tea Time
A cold front is coming. That means more warm tea and wrapping up in sweatshirts and jackets this weekend. Brr.....
Nothing like curling up with a good book, blankets, and a cup of tea.

Day #233: Vegan Mania and Climbing
This weekend - Sarah and I headed into Chicago for Vegan Mania. Lucky us on our timing to be in the area :)
It was interested. We got to sample some good vegan nacho cheese and vegan marshmallows. What makes a marshmallow not vegan, you ask? Because I did. Well the answer is - it contains gelatin which apparently is made up of bone marrow and cartilage. For the record vegan mallows are pretty good.
Here's a picture of our lunch. Chili dumplings and seitan chorizo nachos.
The next day we went to an awesome climbing gym and had a great time! It was really cool! Parts of the wall here were 42 feet tall, which is about 12 feet taller than the gym we go to in Tucson.
