Minimalist Game -February

Pam/ February 27, 2014/ Around Ann Arbor, Minimalism, Random Thoughts

After reading “Everything That Remains” I became inspired to reduce the number of items in my house. “Everything That Remains” chronicles the journey the authors, Joshua and Ryan, made to becoming minimalists. It’s not a “how to” book but more of a “why” to book. On their website there are some examples of the things they tried when making the

Pickleball

Pam/ May 5, 2013/ Around Ann Arbor, Fun Stuff

Yesterday I played Pickleball at the Ann Arbor Y. I’d never heard of Pickleball but was promised it was “super fun”. And, indeed, it was. Pickleball is played on a badminton court with the net lowered to 34 inches. It is played with a perforated plastic baseball (similar to a whiffle ball) and wood paddles. about the size of a

Happy birthday to me

Pam/ January 30, 2013/ Around Ann Arbor

Last year I was in Ecuador on my birthday. Although the venue for my birthday this year was less exotic, we had a grand ole time at the Kelsey Musuem in Ann Arbor celebrating my 50th birthday. I’m grateful for my many wonderful friends, especially to those who offered to help plan and execute the celebration with and for me.

Interrupted

Pam/ June 8, 2012/ Around Ann Arbor, Random Thoughts

Walking almost every day for the last three months affords me the opportunity to see what’s going on in my neighborhood, both with people and nature. I enjoy my walks, love being outside and have recorded over 175 miles in the last three months. Observing from day to day I notice grass cutting that’s been derailed by rain, running out

Barz, Hoon, Fonik, and Norm

Pam/ June 7, 2012/ Around Ann Arbor, Random Thoughts

A couple of months ago a couple of people I’ll call Barz and Hoon used black spray paint on signs, support columns, and under the overpass at Maple and M-14. I call them Barz and Hoon because, in addition to squiggles and drips, they spray painted their names. Instantly irritated, I had thoughts of an act of violence. I wanted

Photos at Sweetwater’s

Pam/ March 24, 2012/ Around Ann Arbor, Art

The Ann Arbor Women Artists partners with Ann Arbor businesses to provide art for their walls. One of the artists in the current eight week show removed her pieces early so I volunteered to fill the vacant space. Until the end of the month, there are eleven of my photos at Sweetwater’s on Washington Street in downtown Ann Arbor. I’ll

Hitchhike Point

Pam/ March 21, 2012/ Around Ann Arbor, Uncategorized

About this time last year I was preparing for my first 5K. Using RunKeeper.com I plotted routes, checked my pedometer to the calculated mileage on RunKeeper, and got accustom to walking more than three miles. There was often a point in my walk I called the “hitchhike point”. It’s that point where I was plum tuckered out and really wanted
