Two highly-anticipated items arrived at Trader Joe's today, and if you have one nearby I highly recommend them. I tried this Belgian Ale at a friends party over the summer, and it was fantastic! They only sell it around this time of year, and at $4.99 it's a great price for a bottle this size. The Wintry Blend coffee has chunks of peppercorns and cinnamon.

Images from a hike through the Cook County Forest Preserve outside Chicago.





this was a path we took off the main trail - pretty much untouched by civilization except for some litter


Beavers have been busy here!

A Brutus Turkey! This is from one of my favorite restaurants in Columbus - Mad Mex. Incredible food and beer selection.

Well it's a new month and I'd love to finish this 2009 daily picture project strong!

The Santa Fe served me well for 165k miles but things were breaking down a little too regularly. Eight Detroit winters will do that. I've been looking for a Cardinal Red 2010 Equinox since I first saw the redesign and color at work this past Spring. Turns out lots of other people liked them too because I couldn't find one at a dealer in the trim I wanted (FWD, 4cyl)...until this weekend.

Santa Fe memories:

I'm breaking the general concept here at DPN, to post a screenshot from my ipod touch. I'm just so pleased with my run tonight! The 8 miles I had on my training plan was a HUGE stretch after I ran seven yesterday and three on Monday. I've never run that many miles in 48 hours, even back in 2005 when I was at my peak. Well it went great, I ran all the way, and even had a semi-respectable pace (for me). Right now, for the first time, I am actually looking forward to the Grand Rapids HM in 10 days.

I'm starting a new healthy eating kick today, along with more running. Part of my eating plan is a minimal dinner and a good protein rich lunch. So tonight's dinner is green beans with lots of pepper, and mango chunks.
