Less than 24 hours until bliss…I think…

Sitting in the office today my editor asked me what I was doing this weekend. Stupidly I said not much. Hence tomorrow; the first Trail Ridge Road ride of the season. Trail Ridge Road, a spectacular mountain climb through Rocky Mountain Park, is everything Colorado: Lung-busting elevation (over 12,000 feet), hundred-mile views and tight two-lane, no-shoulder riding. In other words, just another Saturday here in Boulder…

Boulder Dogs

When I first came to Boulder the prairie dog population baffled me.

“Why don’t the little kids round off the population with some bb gun practice?” I asked.

The dirty looks were too many to count. (Apparently, the world which I grew up in–bb guns, little supervision and death defying stunts–did not exist outside the bubble of the San Lorenzo Valley) So after running, biking, hiking, climbing and walking past these little guys for eight months I decided it was time to shoot a few. (Boulder approved of course)

Back on the horse…

Holy crap! I know, this can’t be. A new post. Seriously what happened? No clue really; just think I got a bit busy.

I will spare you with the details, they are fairly mundane, but I can say it’s been quite the journey. So this is it, the first of hopefully more posts. Needed to get it up here to start again, so thanks all for your encouragement and emails to get off my lazy ass and write something.
