Hawaii Five-O

It is getting to be that time of year when it is impossible to stop thinking about how great Hawaii is. Fall is lovely; the leaves change color, the air gets crisp, the evening gets dusky. Then, BAM! November. It is really dark, it always feels like it is going to rain, and the urge to hibernate sets in. Or to go to Hawaii. Really, it hasn't been so very long since the last time I visited the Aloha state (June 2008...yeah, not long ago at all) but still! So far! So warm! Here's a salute to Honolulu. And a salute to triathlon. See Blog #2 for more details.

Infinity Surprises

I love living in Menlo Park. It has many virtues, quite a few of which are delightful surprises. For example, my new neighbors are wonderful people. My street is quiet. My apartment is cute. There are amenities aplenty withing easy walking distance. The biking is fantastic. But, the J will not be picking me up here any time soon for shopping on Union Square.

*Sigh*

One foot in front of the other, and a good attitude, too.

I told my students I was moving, and, they had the great idea that I make a new photo essay about my bike route to work. Great idea, kiddos! That is why I love you all so much. You are my little rays of sunshine...mostly :0)

Anyway, said photo essay is soon to come.

And, for a little unrelated comic relief, how about a Halloween photo?
