smile even if you don't feel like it

on  a recent long walk I saw this funny little face put into a tree.  It was a long walk/run 10 miles that day.  in preparation for another 1/2 marathon in Vegas in December.  It made me smile and made me push through the next few miles.

favorite song

happy April!!!!!   everyone ready for something a bit different?  maybe some springtime?  I sure am especially some sunshine.  this month I am participating in a blog hop of songs and what they represent to us.  some of the themes have been challenging for me.  Your quest is to guess the song from the picture I have posted.  And please check out the blog list to the right for some more fun with songs.

walking on sunshine

so what is your first guess to this song?

I had this song in my head for weeks trying to take a picture for it was another challenge.  with nothing but cloudy, rainy or snowy days it was impossible.  Finally March 26 I got a quick chance to take the shot and my reluctant husband indulged me for a moment. ONLY a moment though so one quick shot is all I got.

along the way I will give you clues and then at the end of the post I will put the answer with a copy of the song if possible. 

so this obviously has something to do with feet.

something to do with sunshine or shadows.

this is my favorite song of all time because it gets up and going and I just can't help myself I feel like dancing to it. 

its an older song 80's I think

group is katrina and waves  ....... got it now?  I think its a one hit wonder

Walking on Sunshine



what is your favorite song? 
see you tomorrow for my least favorite song.

r is for race for a cure

today was a perfect day for the Susan G Komen Race for a cure run/walk. Spokane's 5th annual walk was a success with almost 9000 participating this year.


Took my point and shoot and with an above the head no idea what I am taking a picture of you can see a large portion of the group. we were about in the middle of the sea of pink for our starting point.


with the release of the balloon the race is off (yes I know there are two spots on the lens and have to figure out how to fix them one I believe is a defect in the lens itself as well)


this sign amused me.



the reason for walk is in celebration of the survivors and in remembrance of those we have lost to breast cancer.



a few from our group unfortunately we didn't get a group shot in just to many people. Cha cha for those ta ta's!!!!!!Kari, Amy (our team captain) Laurie, lizzy and myself.
ps lizzy is ready to race she was much happier once we were on the move.
