Wearing the other shoe
Three times now I have gone into the woods for a hike. Each time I left behind my family in the process. One member in particular always worries the most, my mom. So on this, Mother's Day I thought I would let her know I have worn her…
Beer Can Wallets
So winter time is when I "kinda" slow down. Most winters I get out my sewing machine and get creative. Two years ago I saw a bartender who has a leather wrist band that had a PBR can riveted to it. It made me think I could do something similar…
The End of Riding Season
It's been a while since I last posted anything (Sept. Thomas Lakes). It's hard when you live in a place like this to want to spend any more time than I already do on a computer at work, when I get home. My life has been taken over by cyclocross…
Thomas Lakes Hike
Today I got off to a late start. Getting up at 10:30 didn't help and was probably the reason but who knows. I was torn between going for a ride over Cottonwood Pass or for a hike. Since I hadn't been hiking in some time I decided to go…
Schofield Pass

Ivanhoe Lake Take #1
I love exploring Colorado on my road or mtb bike. The views are amazing and cycling is the best way to see it all. So this past weekend my roommate Nic and a customer of the Aloha's, Wild Bill attempted to circumnavigate Ivanhoe Lake. The…
Settled?
Once again it's been a while since I posted on here. I have no good reason besides I haven't been compelled to write anything. Part of it was it was winter and motivation was low, while some of it had to do with my need for things to be…
Dirt Bag Living IV
It's been a long while since I posted anything. Motivation has been hard to come by when it comes to posting so I apologize. That's not to say I haven't been doing much. On the contrary I have been doing a lot, except working. I installed…
