The Haze Lifts...for but a moment...

The early bird gets the amazing sunrise...

A special place...

Two special people...

that know how to make me smile...




Such strength... and simplicity...

If only life...

could be that simple.

Good Day for a Ride

Breanna and I saddled up this morning for a long awaited ride together. After seeing an article in the Register about local pilgramages, we decided to head out to the Carmel of Jesus, Mary and Joseph in Valparaiso, NE to visit their chapel. It is a monastary of sisters who were relocated from Las Vegas nearly a decade ago, transplanted to the wonderful valley of paradise right in our own backyard.
Wonderful place if you are ever afforded the time...

The Tavern of Distant Dreams

They laughed and played...
while cards fell and the beer flowed...
others gazed at their dreams turning to dust...
stale as bread...

" I once was a young strapping lad!" they would boast...


"but if you ask me," said the bartender...


"it was the music I loved the most..."

Father's Day

"Happy Father's Day. Dad, let's play Beatles Monopoly!"..."Okay!"...


Yay...
"Let's go camping instead :) "

Havelock Charity Run 2010

21 years ago I ran my first road race...the Havelock Bank Run. Enter the Fleetfoot Max...an elite team of elite runners on a mission to raise money for the Friendship Home.

This past weekend, Team Sinclair Hille conquered the 3K corporate division (well...3rd place...but good all the same :) in an effort to raise money for The Matt Talbot Kitchen. Chris Beardslee and Jenni Felton ran the 10K, while Jennifer Koolen, Patrick Beardslee, myself, and Madison & Breanna rounded out the 3K team.

Crazy thing...Maddie is about the age I was when I first ran... :)

Long live the Havelock Run-
