I’ve been struggling with getting enough exercise since I came back from my trip to the Bowron Canoe Circuit, in the summer of 2006. When I decided to take the challenge to participate in the canoe trip with Tee, I started a fitness routine to get into shape. It was going to be [...]

I was so tired last night, I fell asleep before I could post my last NaBloPoMo post. Well, that’s a lackluster ending to the month, isn’t it? I didn’t make my goal of posting every day in November, but I came close. Thank you for indulging my introspective navel-gazing.
