Thursday night

Winter has finally come it seems

I got a book I have been wanting to get for a while:  Peter Strudwick’s “Come Run With Me.”  Peter ran Pikes four times, and had a best time of 7:02:28 (twice this time).  He did that in 1972 and 73.  And without the benefits of hands or feet.  He was born without them as his mother had suffered from rubella (German Measles) during her pregnancy with him.  Keep in mind, prosthetics nearly 40 years ago were a light years away from what they are now.

Following JT’s lead on this and playing with this Green Monster Challenge.  This smoothie was made up of spinach, broch, orange juice, kale, some yogurt, some apples, some grapefruit, some pineapple (all the fruit was lying around the kitchen and getting a bit over ripe) and some red pepper.

The Tanqueray in the background was not in the smoothie.

Forgot to post this shot the other day from when we were heading out to ski

Need to dig into this Joe Grant read.

Lot flying today about Wanjuri trying to kill his wife.
