Birthday Run

I am giddy. no, not because it is my birthday... We got our first snow today, started around 4pm. it was GREAT! it has been over 2.5 years since i have been in the snow. way too long. big, fat, wet flakes.  When i turned 40, i decided that every year on my birthday, the one thing i must do is run. it was extra special today to be able to have my birthday run in while it was snowing. While on my run, i was thinking about my past runs. Since starting in the Foreign Service 3 years ago, i have run in Washington DC, Ouagadougou and now Bishkek. pretty cool.
