I had my own little version of a triathlon last weekend. Michael took our car to go play basketball for the weekend, so I rode my little red bike up to Howth for a cliff run. Cycling, running, and the third leg of my triathlon? Collecting sea glass and smooth rocks for another project! Great exercise all around – and I didn’t even have to get wet!
Sometimes I forget exactly how spectacular our home is – this cliff walk is only a 15 minute cycle from our house! My little weekend triathlon expedition was a great reminder.
Not bad for right around the corner. Do you ever forget to enjoy what’s right in your back yard? I’m trying harder these days to soak it all in. What about you, friends?

It looks so peaceful there; what a wonderful destination! I really like the polaroid-looking photos as well.
Too often we take our own backyards for granted. Thanks for this, Emily. It brought back great memories.
I agree. It is easy to overlook the familiar. We take it for granted.
I try to remember that I live in “vacationland” and to appreciate living in such a beautiful place. I get to “vacation” here every day. I am very fortunate!
You are! I am always trying to appreciate it more and experience the vacation land more when I’m home twice a year! Not enough time for all the vacationing though!
I love the photo of all rocks! What does that say about me????
