16,000 x 0.75 words

I haven't posted anything here lately because, frankly, I'm tired of hearing my own voice. Here are 16 photos from the last 4 weeks, each of which allegedly is worth 1,000 words. I'm not the best photographer, so I'm sharing them at the discounted rate of 12,000 words.

Beth's tree. I sat here over Christmas, by myself,
in the mornings and had some nice thoughts
of my dad.

At my mom's. I feel like I slept better
than my hair might suggest.

A new taproom by where I grew up.

The stone arch bridge from the Guthrie.
The observation deck was closed.

From the Guthrie's windows along
the endless bridge.

Ah, Minnesota.

My uncle posted this photo of my grandparents.
My dad got his smiling photo head tilt from my
Grandpa, I think. My Grandpa was an amazing guy.

Thor, Kristin and Steve's cat.

The nature preserve on the site of the former
swamp where we went when I was a kid.


My brother's dogs: my adventure
companions for three days in the
Northwoods.



The plaque has been installed on the memorial
bench at the nature preserve.  


The Northwoods, again. I'm liking the random order
in which the Blogger app decided to place my
photos.

We forgot to take the ashes of our dogs over the
Christmas holiday. We were going to put them by
the river (this photo and the one above).


Ginny and Arthur couldn't run
away; the snow was too deep. It was
fun to exhaust them each day.

Over the break I set up the fundraising pages for my team's BikeMS rides in 2020. I also set up my main page. This year is already starting off in an unpredictable way, so I don't have everything mapped out yet, but I'm going to funnel all of my fundraising efforts to this ride again this year: http://main.nationalmssociety.org/goto/GoMaggieGo

I'm looking forward to pedaling my way to some new adventures this year. There's always an adventure, if you keep your eyes open.
