There are wild blueberries in the woods behind our home. You haven’t truly enjoyed a blueberry until you eat wild blueberries! I'm picking as many as I can. Will bake blueberry pie! #Blueberries #InOurWoods #Delicious.
Morning Run! Good morning! Feels like fall! Enjoying the day off from the office. I ran 5 miles in 32m:29s. We're spending a nice day at home. Happy Labor Day! #Running #LaborDay #DayOff #RunningFitness
Under water workout! My coach shot this with his camera. #SwimCenter #SwimWorkout
RAIN! At the Swim Center! I'll spend the morning swimming and doing some diving! Dennis is working on weights and taking photos. The sun came out for a short while but the rain is back. Hopefully it will clear up this afternoon! #SwimCenter #Diving #Swimming #RainyMorning
A campfire to end a perfect day! Erik, Dennis, and me had so much fun. So glad Erik asked us if we could spend the day at the falls. Happy weekend everyone! #FunDay #TheFalls #DivingAndSwimming
Dinner for Erik, Dennis, and me!! I made a nice big frittata with a nice salad and my homemade bread! Delicious! We'll go to town and get ice cream for dessert! #Dinner #IMadeAFrittata #DessertInTown
The Falls! Taking the short cut to the top of the falls! Perfect weather! #FunDay #ClimbingAndDiving
The State Forest Falls! Our friend Erik came over early & said he wanted to hit the falls. So we are having fun diving off the upper falls. Dennis dived as well & is taking photos. We brought coffee & breakfast & taking a break before go back to the falls. #TheFalls #MyFavoritePlace #DivingFun
My favorite spot. After work just unwinding on top of the falls. Dennis taking photos which is how he unwinds. Looking forward to enjoying the long weekend. Happy Labor Day! #EnjoyingTheFalls #PerfectWeather #LongWeekend
Morning Run! Beautiful morning! Ran 6 miles in 41m:11s. Looking forward to the long weekend. Labor Day unofficially marks the end of summer. Have a terrific weekend. #Running #LongWeekend #BeautifulDayToday #RunningFitness
I believe we had a falcon checking out our chicken coop! I think Dennis and I scared it away! I loved to see how beautiful it flies. #Falcon #Beautiful #CheckingOutOurChickens
Project! This abandoned old warehouse will be turned into housing! Thanks to generous donors who bought the property and turned it over to us. 15 apartments for families in need will be built. Unions volunteering to help build them. #Homes #WeNeedManyMore #WinterIsComing
Dennis had to take this photo. I was exhausted after the day I had at work. Physically and emotionally drained. I fell asleep at dinner. Another busy day today. There are folks that need housing before winter starts. We'll do what we can! Fingers crossed for us!🙏 #ProudOfWhatWeDo #SocialWorkersCare
Morning Run! Pouring rain. Awful weather all day! Snuck in a 3 mile run when the rain let off for a while. Dennis worried followed on his bike. Ran 3 miles in 24m:26s. Some trees are turning already. It's going to be an early fall! Have a great day! #Running #AwfulWeather #BusyDay #RunningFitness
Hello! Having pizza with Dennis. The good news: Today our office found homes for 19 families. We have more to do tomorrow but to see the smiles on the faces of the families when we gave them the keys to their new homes. Small apartments but they have a nice kitchen and good bathroom. #WhyILoveMyJob
Another busy day! We have an office full of people that need help. We are trying to find housing for Venezuelans and Ukrainians who have fled their homes. We also have several local folks who need homes. Fingers crossed for me please!👍💯✨
Morning Run! Muddy track from all the rain yesterday! Ran 5 miles in 32m:19s. Midweek! Another busy day! Welcome September! #Running #MuddyTrails #FeelsLikeFall #RunningFitness
Dennis took this photo because he said I looked exhausted! And I am! Long, busy day! #Tired
I got home late and Dennis had dinner waiting for me. I love the Mac and Cheese he makes and so he had cooked Mac and Cheese, roasted sweet potatoes, and a salad...Heaven! And he waited to eat with me. He is one of a kind! #FabulousDinner #DennisCooked #ILoveMacAndCheese
We are done interviewing all the college students who applied to be interns. Now we just have to catch up on everything else. Busy afternoon and we'll probably be working late! #BusyDay #InterviewingCollegeStudents
