Quote of the Day: “It isn’t the mountains ahead that will wear you out, it’s the grain of sand in your shoe.”   Unknown

Exercise Log:  Patti and I parked at Rattlesnake Gulch and then walked to Log Haven which is 5.24 miles (+1.12).  It was beautiful in the canyon, we saw deer, rapidly flowing waters and blooming Balsam Root.  Patti wore shorts but I still was in long tights.  Can’t wait for the shorts and sleeveless running tops!

Today Patti asked me to define the 10 greatest blessings in my life so we had a fun time discussing them as we walked. For me:  #1  my family- meaning my relationship with Joe and the happiness and welfare of our children and their families and future families.  #2  Gospel and temple blessings- being sealed as a family   #3  Connection with extended families- having family nearby and being able to share in joys and sorrows    #4  Incredible friends and their support in every aspect of my life-  their example has taught me more about life than I’ve learned anywhere else.  #5 My physical body- being able to be healed and healthy and to do all the physical things I desire- running, tennis, other things I want to accomplish   #6   The great outdoors-  being so close to the canyons, hiking, camping, recreating, Grand Teton National Park- Colter Bay and Jackson Lake,  #7  knowledge and the desire to learn, desire to improve my mind, reading all kinds of books and also having a healthy sound mind  #8  Being born in a country that allows for freedoms in choosing who and how to worship, belief that anything is possible and you can shape your own destiny  #9  Being able to provide a quality of life for family and grandchildren  #10  Being able to help children with their education- grateful that children realize that higher education is a must in their success.
