God Bless Texas!

by Carilyn on April 30, 2012

Back in California after a long weekend in Texas. It was a wonderful, busy, crazy, hot five days.

I ran with friends. I ran alone.

I ran on the river.

I ran on the road.

I ran in the mountains.

I ran in the valley.

I did push ups in the sky.

I ate Mexican food…

And grilled steaks outside.

I was busy. And I was not so busy, out of my normal routine of run and work.

It was heaven.

God bless Texas! 🙂

But it’s fun to be back in California!

Happy Running!

Marcia April 30, 2012 at 10:16 am: Looks like a great time! There’s nothing like really good, authentic Mexican food. Yum!
Kate April 30, 2012 at 1:16 pm: Mmmmm…Mexican food. Now I’m hungry! 🙂

Your runs look wonderful, and the weekend sounds pretty awesome. Glad you had such a great weekend, glad you made it home (well, your “other” home) safely.
Carilyn April 30, 2012 at 8:00 pm: I agree, Marcia! I crave it! Yum!
Carilyn April 30, 2012 at 8:03 pm: It’s always a fun trip – but the altitude kicks my behind! Probably good for me though (at least that’s what I tell myself) 🙂
Mkreuzer April 30, 2012 at 8:22 pm: The Mexican food looked fantastic.
Carilyn May 1, 2012 at 9:14 am: It was delicious – one of the things I miss the most! 🙂
Char May 1, 2012 at 6:54 pm: What a great weekend! It’s so nice that your obsession is portable and can relocate to any state or country.
Carilyn May 1, 2012 at 8:06 pm: It does make life easier – especially when I have to explain it to my hubby 🙂
Anne May 1, 2012 at 8:29 pm: You certainly fit a lot in five days. (And I think the link is broken on the comment function of your most recent post.)
Char May 1, 2012 at 8:37 pm: Just read your comment on my blog. Happy to talk any time. If you want to email me my address is donaldson52@hotmail.com
Karen May 3, 2012 at 1:25 pm: What wonderful views! Glad you had a chance to take some time alone and with your sister.
Carilyn May 3, 2012 at 1:35 pm: Thanks for stopping by, Karen! El Paso does have some wonderful scenery – if you get off the freeway 🙂 It was a fun trip.
Katybeth May 6, 2012 at 6:03 am: Living in Chicago what I miss most about the Southwest besides family is Mexican Food. Sopapilla! I don’t run but I do eat!
Great pictures.
Carilyn May 6, 2012 at 6:19 am: Thanks for stopping by, Katybeth! Yes, it’s hard to find good Mexican food outside of the Southwest. Surprisingly, even in LA I’m having a hard time finding it. 🙁
