For some reason, I just can’t seem to get motivated to write a post. Maybe because its start up time at school, or that Mich’s dad is visiting right now, or that I’m thinking about the 2, no 3, no maybe 4 hockey pool drafts I’ll be in next week. Who knows? But I do have several ideas of things I’d like to write about - I just have to find a way to get my butt into the chair and do it.
We did get our season’s passes for skiing this year today. So now I’m happy to let go of summer warmth and embrace Old Man Winter! Bring it on!!!!

Oh, and maybe I’ll take the opportunity to mention the new look. I think this might be my favorite banner picture so far. Well today it is anyway.

This shot was taken this summer at the top of Puig Carlit, part of our hike in the French Pyrenees. I’ve always wanted a shot like this; with Mich on the top of a rock that we’ve just climbed, the valley through which we hiked to get there off in the distance. I love the colors, the panorama feel and actually, the clouds in the background, nestled into the “little” divots between peaks. Anyway, details about this hike will be in a future post, one that I’m hoping Mich will be a guest writer on.

Well, would you look at that! I almost wrote a new post! I might be back in the saddle after all…
