Late start this morn, as we’ve got to skedaddle off to Henry and Addie’s first Cross Country race soon. Wish them speedy runs, wish them pleasant recoveries.
Both Henry and Addie said the best way to make them run faster is to join the Signal Fire Community! Don’t let them down, join us:
Here’s the scoop, kids:
16 Animals With Delightfully Obvious Names - This is like giving a 3 year old the keys to the animal naming kingdom and letting them have at it. I love simple, silly stuff like this, as it reminds you that there’s NO need to take the world so seriously. Personal favorite: Screaming Hairy Armadillo.
Get Grounded…Fast - Sometimes, a simple shift like grounding yourself can do absolute wonders for your mental peace. We like to do this the moment we land in a new country, barefoot on new, foreign grass. Here are 21 other ways to do so, and quick. I Love this.
50 Most Beautiful Small Towns On Earth - Lady G and I are not, and probably never will be Big City travelers. Sure, we go to them from time to time, but we always try to get out as fast as possible, choosing instead the small towns, the tiny hamlets, the perfect little secluded villages. This article has the 50 most beautiful, in their opinion, and man oh man are there some doozies.
Terlingua by Gregory Alan Isakov - When your brother from another mother releases a record, you celebrate, and you support. This song rocks from the record, and I’m proud as punch of the guy.
Luis Diaz Goal Against Bournemouth - Oooooh, if you don’t know by now I am a Liverpool fan until the end (YNWA!) and this goal from the last game was an absolute reminder as to why it’s called “The Beautiful Game.”
Typewriter Series Silliness - More videos of me being an idiot, but also reading you poetry.
I love you all. Be good.
Best of luck Addie & Henry! I hope the recovery is gentle with little DOMS. May there be a nap & snacks at the end of your run.
Maybe even a cooldown while you listen to a certain new album release of the Isakov variety.
