FLORY POWER: August 2009
http://florypower.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
It's not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves." Sir Edmund Hillary. Sunday, August 30, 2009. I can't express how many times it has snowed in the higher elevations during the month of August this year, simply because I have lost count! Today was one such day, though. I waited all day for the clouds to give way some because I just knew Pikes Peak would be dusted white from today's weather. I was right, and here is the end result:. Sunday, August 30, 2009.

FLORY POWER: September 2010
http://florypower.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
It's not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves." Sir Edmund Hillary. Thursday, September 30, 2010. Not so long ago. There are times in your life when you put aside the writing you so enjoy producing because you're actually tired of writing! Such has been the case for me since my degree program has me writing many, many academic papers. Just this past summer I wrote over 150-pages, for one class.in just 8-weeks! But here's the big thing: I will be competing in my first half-marathon in two weeks! In the ...

FLORY POWER: To Israel, With Love.....
http://florypower.blogspot.com/2010/12/to-israel-with-love.html
It's not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves." Sir Edmund Hillary. Monday, December 6, 2010. To Israel, With Love. What does this have to do with Israel? Well, it gives a little background, and a little insight into some of my feelings. For a short time in high school I considered pursuing a college degree in law enforcement. I even visited the Police Academy in Salt Lake City to inquire! But, that was the decision I made and I have absolutely no regrets. Monday, December 06, 2010. To Israel, With Love.

FLORY POWER: 2010 In Review...
http://florypower.blogspot.com/2010/12/2010-in-review.html
It's not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves." Sir Edmund Hillary. Sunday, December 26, 2010. Okay, so it might be a tad early to be posting this since we're a week away from New Year's Eve, but it also doubles as a Christmas letter, so. What a wild, fast-paced, and fun year! The year was rung in with the usual fireworks from atop Pikes Peak. It's quite the spectacle from 40-miles away! Hockey is definitely more fun to watch when it's a bunch of 4 - 8 year olds, though! Jeff took up mountain biking wi...

FLORY POWER: November 2010
http://florypower.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
It's not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves." Sir Edmund Hillary. Monday, November 1, 2010. Rock 'n' Roll Pro-shots. These are just a smattering of my favorite shots by the professional photographers from the half marathon two weeks ago. What an exhilarating feeling! About mile 3, right before the old Union Station. I thought this was a fun shot since we were in the same step, same stride, and both looking at the camera. She pulled away shortly after and finished 19-minutes ahead of me.

FLORY POWER: Hockey Mom!
http://florypower.blogspot.com/2010/10/hockey-mom.html
It's not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves." Sir Edmund Hillary. Friday, October 1, 2010. Yes, yes, it is true: I am now officially a Hockey Mom! In all honesty, when the glimmer of kids came up in our lives, I never once imagined that the term "hockey parents" would ever enter the picture. It's just now something that we've ever been big into. Baseball, swimming, football, even soccer was more along the expectation line! Friday, October 01, 2010. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

It's not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves." Sir Edmund Hillary. Friday, January 22, 2010. Natural Disasters Equal Natural Tears. Friday, January 22, 2010. Links to this post. Monday, January 18, 2010. New Year, New Semester, New Life. Four research papers, one speech, and plenty of time making sure I don't completely blow tests that are all essay questions. I see many late nights in my future! But it IS all worth it! To the shelter at the Salvation Army. But other than that, I have finally near...

FLORY POWER: Rescuing the Rescuers
http://florypower.blogspot.com/2011/01/rescuing-rescuers.html
It's not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves." Sir Edmund Hillary. Monday, January 3, 2011. Saturday morning was a very brisk start to 2011. The thermometer at our house read -8 degrees, but the thermometer at the Pueblo airport, about a dozen miles to the East, was reading -21 degrees. But, oh, what a gorgeous morning! So, on to what we were doing. Well, we joined about 600 other crazy individuals and braved the frigid temperatures to run a race! So, this is a fun way to show support. I did eventuall...

It's not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves." Sir Edmund Hillary. Sunday, October 17, 2010. Rockin 'n' Rollin Denver. As much as I absolutely love watching the sun come up and the world come to life, I desperately hate dragging my lazy butt out of bed in the morning. This is especially true when the seasons turn and it's cold. I made the exception this morning, however, to have an adventure through the the streets of Denver, Colorado. This went on for about 2-miles. By mile 3, the streets were ne...
