YES the years have flown but they return again

Posted on July 8, 2019 by Christopher Cudworth

The eternal cycle of classic rock bands touring the world will eventually run out of steam. Aging rockers can’t keep it up forever. That’s a literal and rhetorical reference to why rock stars go on tour in the first place. … Continue reading →

Cycling with good friends

Posted on July 6, 2019 by Christopher Cudworth

I didn’t take up serious road cycling until the 2007. Before that, I’d ridden mountain bikes and an old Trek 400 road bike for four years that got me around, but not very fast. So it wasn’t until I bought … Continue reading →

The tale of one determined girl and the triathlon

Posted on July 1, 2019 by Christopher Cudworth

When reality bites, call in the experts

Posted on June 28, 2019 by Christopher Cudworth

Last weekend I began to notice a sore area around my #18 molar. That’s the tooth on the far back left side of the mouth. It would flare up and recede in relation to cold or sweets and I knew, … Continue reading →

The Matrix is real in a really organic way

Posted on June 24, 2019 by Christopher Cudworth

I don’t plan too heavy or too far ahead

Posted on June 21, 2019 by Christopher Cudworth

I kind of take training as it becomes available. For example, that’s me doing some heavy lifting with a local tree. All part of the natural regimen I keep. But seriously… We got to the pool this morning at 6:00 … Continue reading →

A carnival of years gone by

Posted on June 20, 2019 by Christopher Cudworth

The day was overcast as it often seems to be in mid-June. Summer has not quite arrived. The calendar teases us with the equinox turning and yet the days automatically start shortening. The yin and yang of yearly destiny. That … Continue reading →

Posted on June 18, 2019 by Christopher Cudworth

Toward the end of my run through the woods and prairie at Dick Young Forest Preserve, I turned east on the last stretch of trail toward the parking lot and beheld a strange sight up ahead. At first I thought … Continue reading →

Spending Father’s Day in a cloud

Posted on June 17, 2019 by Christopher Cudworth

There was no rain predicted in our area yesterday, which was Father’s Day. No green blobs on the radar. No threat of being bombarded on an early Sunday morning. But the weather forecast was not entirely accurate. It wasn’t raining … Continue reading →

Against the wind and blown away

Posted on June 13, 2019 by Christopher Cudworth

This morning my schedule called for a bird census trip to a restored prairie at a local forest preserve. It was windy out today. I’m not a fan of birding in the open when a strong breeze is blowing because … Continue reading →
