The Pasadena Marathon posted its course map today. After running the Long Beach, Big Sur and Los Angeles marathons, there is something really cool about running a course that is never more than 5 or 6 miles away from my house.
I'm a composting geek. We compost all of our non-meat table scraps, coffee grounds, and some yard waste and then dig it into our garden soil each year as a natural fertilizer. It's always fun to see what "volunteers" pop up from that compost. After Halloween we composted our jack-o-lanterns, and this year our favorite volunteer is a pumpkin vine, complete with one little pumpkin.
I wish coffee plants would volunteer. Hmmm.
