Tidbits

Something I find rather wondrous here in Colorado (besides the scenery) is the fact that strawberries and raspberries grow like weeds here. They are everywhere. Mr X and I have gone on countless hikes this summer and we nearly always spot wild strawberries or raspberries. This morning after our jog we were heading back to our house and we saw loads of raspberries on the wooded hillside just behind our house. So there we were, stinky, sweaty and flushed but happily nibbling on fresh wild raspberries. I love it!

On a side note - we finally got all of our doctors picked out and visited here in our new state and I have to say that you know you're getting old when suddenly you realise that all of your doctors are younger than you. That sucks.
