Making Every Mile Count
Do you run? Maybe you walk, or ride a bike. Chances are, if you do not, someone you know does. Maybe it is a best friend, or a daughter or a mother, a sister, or even a brother or a son.

There was a time when I didn’t really ever give much thought to where or when I was running. I would put on my running shoes, and just go. …

I have to start this post by saying that Nevada City is a great little town.

A Weekend At Fisherman’s Wharf In San Francisco, CA
“I’ve been high, and I’ve been low. I’ve been yes, and I’ve been oh, hell no! I’ve been rock ‘n roll and disco. Won’t you save me San Francisco?” – Train I love San Francisco! I was super excited to spend the weekend at Fisherman’s Wharf, and it did not disappoint!! Let me just start at the beginning… Getting there… From where we are right now, San Francisco is about a 3 hour drive, give or take a little, depending on traffic. We were on the road by about 3 p.m. Friday afternoon. Traffic wasn’t to awful, and the drive was actually pretty. I love bridges, and we had to…
