Life is a headlong rush into the unknown. We can hunker down and hope nothing hits us or we can stand tall, lean into the wind and say, "Bring it on, darlin', and don't be stingy with the jalapenos."
Thanks, Holly!

And with 67.4 miles this week, I have my mostest miles week for 2016! Yeah, Im happy!
