PNW running - Birch Bay

My Saturday long run was going to be 7 miles at Birch Bay, Washington. I usually try to do my longer runs on Saturday's. At this point in my training my goal is to run somewhere between 5 and 10 miles for my long weekend run. I started and ended at the Bay Cafe (btw, wonderful place to eat). I went out & back two different directions - 2 miles towards the State park, back to the cafe, and then 1 1/2 miles towards Semiahmoo and back.

It was a wet and windy start -

Some views from my run -

as you can see it tried to lighten up, but by the time I was done it was 

back to 

dark skies, wind and rain.

I enjoyed it thoroughly!

Google reading no more

The last time I opened my iGoogle page and my Google reader I got the message that they will soon be no more.

I have however made the transition from Google reader to feedly. I love it. It sync'd my reading list effortlessly. I really like the way I can customize it for myself.

ah ha....I have now found an alternative reader for my ever growing blog reading list. I can read it on my laptop with any browser and they also have a free app for iPhones.

Here's a link with info. on the transition:

Happy days are here again.
