Sometimes a change in perspective is less about being fickle and more about remaining open to the flow of energy.

Today, I'm thankful for my view.

Today I'm thankful for a boy and his dog.

The Boy Scouts have been busy this past decade. I just started running these trails in Laguna Canyon again (haven't done so since training for the Flo Jo 1/2 Marathon 10 yrs ago) recently and I'm stoked to find a number of new, very well maintained trails.

Logged quite a few miles on account of those Scouts, thank you very much.

Today, I'm thankful to be a runner. Again. And I was pleased to find it fit me like, well, an old shoe.

Got me some catching up to do.

On Sunday I had the good fortune to spend the day hiking with some people I love. More than just mine own, cousins and uncles were involved. The highlight being some time spent in a lovely oak (I think) tree.

Boys are built to climb (even big boys), and in my experience, we're drawn to it if given the opportunity. I'm always grateful for the chance to give expression to innate desires.

A few pics of our day.

These are my people. This is our environment. I'm so very grateful.

That's all.
