A (short) Wednesday Hike

September 29, 2011

TweetI decided to take a hike yesterday and go up a local mountain trail. More specifically, up Black Mountain. It isn’t really a recreational hike but more a path up a mountain side but it felt really good. I’ve actually done this hike 4 times this year which is a record but it’s short and [...]

Finding Motivation…

July 27, 2011
