Dear Future me

Dear Future me,

Don’t wait until you are “old and fragile” to remember what your 93-year old Grammy (in-law) said, “Health is wealth.”

I should have focused on my health, but…

I could have focused on my health, but…

I would have focused on my health, but…

A picture is worth less if it doesn’t tell the whole story

Never get bored with the basics. Scout ahead and plan accordingly.

Only an hour away, Two Medicine and East Glacier were firsts for all three of us.

Comparing the real thing to the photos is a great way to judge for yourself instead of taking the photographer’s word (lens angle).

Making future reservations sight unseen could lead to disappointment when photos are misleading.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

 

Here’s to hoping our future is the best part

Last night the pool warmed up enough for us to enjoy it before dinner.

 

Here’s to hoping our future is the best part. And yes, i’m referring to our health. Crazy. Which is perfect.

Katie’s future is so bright, it reminds us of us

Heading off to University?
Heading off to University?

 

Katie’s future is so bright, it reminds us of us.

She’s heading off to University in two months on a soccer scholarship.

A life full of physical activity.

After college there will be plenty of time to easily and quickly stop being physically active.

As predictable as the rising sun, no?

Happy New Year To Those Youthful Souls Who Know No Age Limit

In the upper right corner, the date: 12/31/11 (last night)
Cheryl and Chapin bundled up on New Year's Eve 2011 watching Katie's soccer game.

Yeah, it’s April Fool’s Day on the calendar, but it’s New Year’s Day as I write this post. Click here for details. (hint: I’m conducting a blogging, and life, experiment).

Last night (New Year’s Eve 2011), we attended Cheryl’s cousin’s daughter’s 16U soccer game at ESPN’s Wide World of Sports Complex. They drove down from Jacksonville earlier and are staying a few days with us during the tournament.

I can’t help but wonder how far those young women have come in 90 days, now that it’s April Fool’s Day 2012.

And couldn’t help but wonder how far any of us have come since New Year’s Day.
