Too much ‘swim, bike, run’ makes K* a dull guy.
Woke early on Saturday to break up the routine with a hike – yep, back in the mountains. That’s what I need.
Ash, Tom, my friend Matt & both dogs loaded up – destination: Horsetooth Rock in Fort Collins. Been more than a year since I’ve hiked Horsetooth, so plugged the address in my iPhone. An hour half later we parked Matt’s SUV off a dirt road within Lory State Park. Technology – argh! No Horsetooth this day.
Overcast & windy conditions wouldn’t stop Ro & Marty from enjoying 5 miles of off-leash freedom. Well Gulch to Timber Trail, then SNOW! A week before Spring, most folks are tired of all winter precip – but I can’t help smile anytime snow’s flying 🙂
Clouds lifted soon after, exposing an almost artist’s rendering of Horsetooth Reservoir. Beautiful!
Showered & groomed again, spent the remainder of the weekend in Denver catching up with former NYC co-workers. Miss my former NYC peeps but still LOVE LOVE my Colorado life! 🙂
