I’m relatively new to your blog and I’m loving it. Your writing is fun and inspiring. If I ever make it out to Utah (my aunt lives there, so it’s possible), I’ll definitely check out the Lambert Park trails.

Sorry, bike people:

Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune–without the words,
And never stops at all,

And sweetest in the gale is heard;
And sore must be the storm
That could abash the little bird
That kept so many warm.

I’ve heard it in the chillest land,
And on the strangest sea;
Yet, never, in extremity,
It asked a crumb of me.

Great post. I love the Little House books, and that Christmas chapter is one of the best parts of the whole series. Thanks for reminding me of the power of simple pleaasures.

New to your blog (WHERE have I been?), but it feels like home — that Susan isn’t stronger, but isn’t weaker? That’s how we measure our days, too. A good day, in our lives, now, is a day in which you don’t get bad news. I’m training to ride the Pan Mass Challenge in Massachusetts, and am going to get a Fatty wooly (no spring in Boston, yet). But really, am writing to find out if I can buy one of Susan’s wonderful bracelets… or maybe a bunch.

Hey, Botched took me to rodeo. Fun trail. Lucky you.

On a side note, I did my first outdoor road ride yesterday, and I think you should be grateful you didn’t. I don’t know what the wind speed was in Utah, but I was totally pinned just to hold 18 into our nasty Idaho wind.

Dude – I love Little House and Lambert Park! That’s funny, I always remember that story right around Christmas time when, for whatever reason, our planned “small-this-year” Christmas ends up out of control.

It’s the simple things, man. The simple things.

I’d love to ride today. I’ll see what I can pull off.

Sounds like heaven! Still looking for anything remotely close to this in northern NJ…
