Tara's back!

My friend Tara is back in Austin! She and her husband moved to Manhattan 18 months ago and have been busy enjoying the life in the big city. They moved back to Austin over the weekend and it is awesome to have her back!

We are both training for the same marathon in the Fall, so last night was our first workout running together with Mac. Poor Tara had to have her first workout be a 2000m time trial in the 98 degree sun. Anyhow, we both rocked the workout, and she sure proved that she is able to still run hard. Rock on sista!

Today we went to lunch at Wahoo's (where else would I have taken her?) because she had never been. I think it must have opened during the time when she was not living here. Tara also invited me to see all of the work they have done over the last few days to clean up their house. I had heard that the house needed a lot of work after they had rented it out for 18 months. It looked pretty great, which means they had obviously done a ton of work. There were big bags of bamboo piled on the curb from the dry bamboo forest that they had cut down in their backyard. Amazing!

Welcome back to Austin, Tara!
