Mattie & Mollie


Mattie was my Golden Lab that I got while still in Seattle and moved out with us to Denver; photo is of her at Whidbey Island, WA. Mollie was our Cattle Dog mix and the photo was taken up at Clear Creek in Buffalo WY. Best dogs!

old bus & snow photos



Lower photo taken about 2 years ago before our carport went up (photo of the carport with bus below) and the top photo was taken during the blizzard of 2003

Road Trip '05 Car Henge NE, Black Hills SD, KY





After Devils Tower in WY, we went through the Black Hills SD stopping at Crazy Horse and Mt Rushmore (smaller than I was expecting). Then heading south we visited Car Henge in Alliance, NE. It's an exact replica of Stone Henge. and worked our way over to OH and I visited the Air Force Museum (very kewl airplanes!). KY is very beautiful, the rolling hills of horse country and old Tobacco curing barns.

Summit Lake, Mt. Evans


Did a training ride on Sunday from Evergreen Colorado up to Summit Lake Mt Evans (13k alt). Next Saturday is the Race from Idaho Springs to the top. Summit Lake is 5 miles from the top, in fact, from the lake, you can see the viewing platform at the top. Can't see it in this photo but it's to the left. The race is from 7k to 14k alt. www.bicyclerace.com . I'm looking to survive the last 9miles..... but I will say, amazing views. On the training ride, I saw elk running below me..... Marmots sit next to the road watching you pedal by....
