Running with Stilettos: Villa Louis Carriage Classic
http://runningwithstilettos.blogspot.com/2013/09/villa-louis-carriage-classic.html
Living a balanced life in dangerous shoes © Mary T. Wagner. Sunday, September 8, 2013. Villa Louis Carriage Classic. I was looking for a break from routine, and decided on a weekend getaway to Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin and the 2013. Villa Louis Carriage Classic. Of course, I could stare at horses parading past all day long and never get tired. The weather was perfect, and with the Mississippi River rolling by on a warm summer day, you couldn't ask for anything more. Villa Louis Carriage Classic. BOOK C...

Running with Stilettos: Squirrel Mercies
http://runningwithstilettos.blogspot.com/2015/02/squirrel-mercies.html
Living a balanced life in dangerous shoes © Mary T. Wagner. Friday, February 20, 2015. I have changed the steps of the dance. Other than a trio of babies that decided to check out the porch one night last summer, I haven't noticed any raccoons making midnight forays lately. Let's face it, the birds clear out the seeds I put out in the morning by lunchtime. However, there is. The occasional squirrel.or even two.that stop by. We evolved a routine over time that relied on a pas de deux. One day I decided to...

Running with Stilettos: The "lost" Courthouse Mural
http://runningwithstilettos.blogspot.com/2012/08/treasure-hunt.html
Living a balanced life in dangerous shoes © Mary T. Wagner. Sunday, August 19, 2012. The "lost" Courthouse Mural. We were two chicks in a sporty convertible with the top down on a sunny summer day, hunting down a rumor at least fifty years old. Nancy Drew never had this. Much fun on a lunch hour! But I digress…as usual. It shares an architect with Chicago’s gorgeous One North LaSalle building. The conversation that led to the ride in the convertible started out, as usual, on a completely different subject.

Running with Stilettos: Elegy for a Barn
http://runningwithstilettos.blogspot.com/2014/12/elegy-for-barn.html
Living a balanced life in dangerous shoes © Mary T. Wagner. Monday, December 22, 2014. Elegy for a Barn. NATIONAL FEDERATION OF PRESS WOMEN. First Place winner, "photographer-writer"! There are barns and sheds and cows in abundance on this drive. Most of the barns still in use are painted the traditional red with white trim, and most of the cows are black and white Holsteins renowned for their milk production, and so I might be forgiven for assuming a certain sameness to the rural landscape. And then, on...

Running with Stilettos: Printers Row magic 2015!!
http://runningwithstilettos.blogspot.com/2015/06/printers-row-magic-2015.html
Living a balanced life in dangerous shoes © Mary T. Wagner. Sunday, June 7, 2015. Printers Row magic 2015! The magic started early at this year's Printers Row Lit Fest. Okay, getting up at four in the morning in order to drive to Chicago early enough to unload books and supplies at the Chicago Writers Association. Tent instead of carting them from the parking lot was ghastly. BUT! What a marvelous day from the get-go! As we stood there and wondered what to do next, " Havana Lost. You couldn't find two se...

Running with Stilettos: Resting Places
http://runningwithstilettos.blogspot.com/2014/04/resting-places.html
Living a balanced life in dangerous shoes © Mary T. Wagner. Tuesday, April 22, 2014. I have become utterly enchanted with the art, and the silence, and the poignance of old graves in cemeteries. Whether ornate and well-traveled, or plain and forgotten, off the beaten path on two-lane country roads and beside steepled churches in small towns, these stone markers stand as testaments to the fact that we want to be remembered, and that we mattered, and that we were, above all, loved.
