Running the rainbow road
Awesome running and scenery in Vermont! South Royalton i never doubted you, except for that time i doubted you. So, i went for a run this morning, i couldn't help myself, as usual i was up before chelsea and since you cant do anything at our place without making noise (squeaking creaking doors and floors etc) i looked up a map of the town and headed out. i went down railroad st, took two quick rights and was on pluck hill rd. the roads name is accurate, it was a hill. a dirt hill to be exact and steep too. i should have waited three days or so before exercise to let my body adjust to the mountain elevation and begin producing more oxygen carrying red blood cells. Therefore, in theory, after a year of living here if i flew immediately to Arizona and tried out for the ASU football team i would have all the more advantage over those sea level kids, for about three days anyway until my body adjusted. Thats why Dallas Cowboy receiver Terrell Owens sleeps in a hyperbaric chamber every night. Im off track, ok back to the run, i ran back down the hill and continued straight; the road changed names three times now, Rainbow rd to Pleasant to Oxbow rd. whatever it was called though what it was in reality is heart-burstingly steep incline road. I was able to go up a little but i had to turn around after not to far. there was lush green forest all around like going for a run at your cabin or something. Chelsea and I went through Lebanon new hampshire and saw the dartmouth hitchcock medical center. it is up a few hills and set back privately in the woods, but once you get there it is so big; an absolutely sprawling campus, just huge. i hope to get a job at the DHMC, i would really like that opportunity. its off to church at 1000 tomorrow. the chapel is about 5 minutes away from our house, what a blessing to have church here. speaking of blessings, i just found out that i got paid for all my unused vacation days from lifelink; hoorah for unions... in this case.

Running already -- good boy! I miss your incredibly large shoes in the shoe basket as only a mother can. Thanks for taking care of my girl so well. And thanks for keeping us posted!
