Some of My Favorite Moments of 2011: Ran my first 5k. My firecracker niece, Bella, turned 3. My quirky thug dog, Henry, turned 3. Jumped off a 35′ cliff and didn’t die, but learned how to live. Got heat stroke and spent 2 days laughing in a hospital with a new friend. Went on my [...]

It’s Just Like Riding a Bike
