I went back to work after a few days off. This is what I face from my desk. I love this panoramic view on my camera. Everything looks so much cooler. My toes are still blue. I am running tomorrow even if I have to tape my toes up.

I finished reading A Thousand Acres by Jane Smiley last evening. She won the Pulitzer in 1992 for the novel. Maybe it was the subject material but I wasn’t entirely thrilled with it. Generally I agree with all the Pulitzer Prize winners, however, this one left me wanting something more.
