Bradley Melekian wrote an interesting article in the New York Times today about how the increased demand for "easy access to trails" is changing how land and home developers plan for new communities. Golf courses are out, planned open space is in! Not only is trail running growing in popularity, it is now the #1 amenity that potential home owners seek in a new community (according to the National Association of Home Builders). Nancy Hobbs was even quoted to say that home developers have become an interesting ally to the trail running community. Be sure to check out the article for more interesting facts.

Darcy Padilla came down from San Francisco to take the snapshot of me on page E9. This is along the Skyline Trail, just across the street from Kings Mountain Road. Darcy is awesome, and made great use of some hard light that afternoon.

Thanks again to everyone for their congratulations on our baby. It meant a lot to me that you all would stop by and leave a note! She and mom are doing great, and Rocky is thrilled to have a new pint-sized friend in the house.
