Baltic Tour Highlight #4: The Fab Four. The fab four: B, Estonian Buddy, Amazing Roommate and me in Tallinn's Raekoja Plats. While there were many wonderful people on this tour, the four above were my standby, stalwart, Baltic pals. I’ve already blogged about my Estonian Buddy, and my Running Buddy, but rounding out the four was my Amazing Roommate. The four of us in front of Tartu's Kissing Fountain. Thank you to the three of you. When people ask me what I loved the most about this trip, I say you.

I love the Olympics. Always have, and always will, unless they begin killing puppies as an olympic event, but I digress. Me at a pretty neat outdoor art installation. During the day it was okay, but at night it was magical, as every piece of art lit up with the Olympic spirit. Every business had some sort of Canadian flag or maple leaf. One of us spent the whole two days taking pictures of every awesomely dressed Canadian she saw. Let's just say, we were stopping a lot. I know as the Olympics continue, I...

At the beginning of May, I successfully completed my second half marathon. I had been training since January and had a goal to finish in under two hours. I was pretty pumped when I finished in 1:58:47. Below are some of the highlights. I didn't get the customary plastic ties to help secure my timing chip, so I improvised with a delightful shoelace purchase. For a while, I couldn't figure out what was going on. Then I realized the genius of the idea. June 17, 2009 at 10:00 PM. Other Blogs To Look At:.

M i s c e l l a n e y: I *heart* Oakland: Lake Merritt Edition
http://miscellaneouslaney.blogspot.com/2008/12/i-heart-oakland-lake-merritt-edition.html
I *heart* Oakland: Lake Merritt Edition. It was a beautiful morning in the Bay Area. Those of you who have actually visited my blog may recognize this shot.). This particular morning, I encountered some of the people that make Oakland so special in my heart. While on my second lap around the lake, a white male in his sixties, walking with a bunch of other white males in their sixties, pointed at me and yelled "Warm Blood! As I ran by, the older man stopped talking mid-sentence, starred at me and said,.

I'm NOT a photographer, so a big thanks to CameraBag Desktop. Some lovely friends of mine at Nevercenter just released CameraBag Desktop for Mac. I do not profess to be any kind of photographer/artist of the camera, but I think this program helped me make some of my highly mediocre point-and-shoot photos look pretty darned good.
