Allow me to introduce myself

Top of the Tuesday to ya!  Well, considering it is 6:15pm as I write this, its more like the bottom of the gruesomely long Tuesday hill for which I can't wait to kick off my incredibly loyal (and now rubbing) running shoes.

Speaking of hills, did anyone see the most recent episode of "The Hills" on MTV?  

HA HA.  I kid.

I would rather fall off the empire state building and hope to land in Tom Leykis' mouth than watch an episode of that mind-numbing waste of air space.

Instead, I speak of hills, as in, "the hills are alive with the sound of music."  Yes, I am referring to those glorious lumps of land that surround the greater LA area and most of Orange County. (Eww..I hate name dropping, forgive me).

Why am I speaking about lumps, Fergie might ask?  (No, not lady lumps....or humps?) I speak about them because I am in love with them.  Hills, mountains, parks, beach trails, rocks, ALL OF IT.  I am a tree-hugging, nature lover.  

Therefore, rather than name dropping and blabbing about pointless nonsense that unfortunately makes the majority of our headlines, I will be sharing with you my knowledge and experiences about hiking.  For it is sincerely my joy, my passion and could even fill in as my boyfriend.  (I am aware that my keyboard has a "delete" button, but I confidently decline its offer....even after that last statement).

I'm weathered and beaten, insightful and motivated.  

I'm Kristin, and I'm guiltless.
