Five things I thought about during my morning run:

1. Blue sky. Crisp air. One foot in front of the other.

2. Remembering.

3. The way Americans emerge. The way our spirit will not be crushed.

4. Ohmigoodness. That hill is hard to run.

5. Really looking forward to Bouchercon. But I’m also a bit nervous. Yep. Well, maybe more than a wee bit nervous.
