Forever Wild: January 2012
http://foreverwildadks.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Adventures in Upstate New York's Adirondack Park. Tuesday, January 31, 2012. A few minutes after we arrived at Armstrong, it seemed the entire community of hikers descended upon us like horseflies. After getting one to snap the picture above, we gathered our bags and pressed onward, motivated by the knowledge of having already completed three peaks. Maybe this wouldn't be so hard after all! The High Peaks have a way of making you sorry for even the slightest notions of overconfidence. As I rounded the co...

An Irreverent Whirl: October 2011

Saturday, October 29, 2011. What My Aching Back Has Been Trying to Tell Me. Yoga is great for a lot of reasons and I adore the strengthening, the stretching, the breathing. But sometimes I use that lovely stretch of time to think (BAD yogini! And occasionally the light bulb goes off. This morning, as I lay draped over a bolster, several ideas I've had this week came together in an A-HA! What really hit home was the question "What are you most ashamed of? Holy shit. It's a lie. My bills are always paid, m...

Forever Wild: July 2011
http://foreverwildadks.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Adventures in Upstate New York's Adirondack Park. Tuesday, July 12, 2011. I represent what is left of a vanishing race, and that is the pedestrian.that I am still able to be here, I owe to a keen eye and a nimble pair of legs. But I know they'll get me someday.". Consists of five mountains: Macomb, South Dix, East Dix, Hough, and Dix, the first four of which are "trailless". I got two consecutive days off a couple weeks ago, so I decided to head North to conquer some more of my 46. I know I really. Altho...

Forever Wild: December 2011
http://foreverwildadks.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Adventures in Upstate New York's Adirondack Park. Friday, December 30, 2011. Chimney Mountain and Eagle Cave. Do you think these halls are fair, where your King dwells under the hill in Mirkwood, and dwarves helped in their making long ago? They are but hovels compared with the caverns I have seen here: immeasurable halls, filled with an everlasting music of water that tinkles into pools, as fair as Kheled-Zaram in the starlight.". Gimli, Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers. A few miles south of Indian Lake.

Fat Grrl Rides : #365yoga 9 posts behind....
http://fatgrrlrides.blogspot.com/2013/03/365yoga-9-posts-behind.html
It's all about the journey. Monday, March 18, 2013. 365yoga 9 posts behind. Bad blogger. Ack. I'm nine posts behind on my challenge loop #365yoga blog posts, too much happened and I couldn't make the time to write. Not and excuse but the reality of my life over the last three weeks. I'm not going to try to catch up, but will just start anew. I've seen kindness of strangers and observed the deep sadness of the human condition. So two vignettes. In any case, I'll try to be better about writing!

Forever Wild: Mount Haystack
http://foreverwildadks.blogspot.com/2011/12/mount-haystack.html
Adventures in Upstate New York's Adirondack Park. Wednesday, December 21, 2011. Take my love, take my land. Take me where I cannot stand. I don't care, I'm still free. You can't take the sky from me. Take me out to the black. Tell them I ain't comin' back. Burn the land and boil the sea. You can't take the sky from me. There's no place I can be. Since I found Serenity. But you can't take the sky from me.". This is where it gets tough. I had one of my worst High Peaks memories on this one-mile long trail ...

Fat Grrl Rides : #365yoga Stressed out so stressed out
http://fatgrrlrides.blogspot.com/2013/06/365yoga-stressed-out-so-stressed-out.html
It's all about the journey. Thursday, June 20, 2013. 365yoga Stressed out so stressed out. I've not been writing here. I know it. But I don't want to abandon my blog! So, a quick update. I'm not doing as much yoga as I like to be doing. My work life ate into yoga time pretty badly over the course of the spring semester- hopefully now that summer is here I can work on being more intentional with my time and make it to the classes that I enjoy most. August 6, 2014 at 5:21 AM. NY, NY, United States. I'm a y...
