As prep for Ironman, Ash chided me into participating in Bike to Work Day.
Sunny day biking towards the Flatirons – beautiful ride, why we live there. My morning ride ended with a flat rear ride — blown valve…so in actuality I celebrated National Walk your Bike to Work Day 🙁
All in all inspired me to bike to or from work every day this week — including my first Tri day. Biked to Colorado Athletic Club in Boulder, swam 50 laps, then ran home after work 10 minutes uphill, in blowing wind, rain & later sunshine.
Adding National Bike to Work to my calendar again next year. New tradition!
Good to see so many people outside & greening up the Planet.

Robin It was my first too! I biked with Rob to his work and then biked back home to work! Sorry about the flat
Kimberly Lol you do have a job!! With all your adventures with hiking in foreign lands, I had no clue what you did now! Lol sorry you had a flat though!
Ashton Step 2..learning how to fix a flat! We got this
Joyce You look like you are all in one piece. love you!
I can do anything because so could you.
I am strong — body & spirit — because you loved an awkward, shy boy 40 years ago. We birdwatched in the backyard – just the 2 of us. You taught me calculus before I was 10. I grew. I attended college. I moved away; I travelled the world — but always returned, me your eldest grandchild.
Expecting Monday to be a celebration — Granddad’s now back with ‘Jean’, the love of his life. WOW! Do people still love like that? Thankful God smiled down on me & chose this man as my Granddad.
Staring into Heaven, Faraway,
I know he’s going to be okay.
to the Greatest Man I’ll Ever Know…RIP Granddad. I love you.

“Go out every 10 to 15 minutes and you’ll watch the moon get, as a third-grader once put it to me, eaten by the shadow.”
That was the quote which convinced me to set my alarm for the 1 a.m. lunar eclipse – the Blood Moon. First time an eclipse has been visible from my Colorado home. Generally we’re on the wrong side of the globe, wrong side of the U.S., too far south – or it’s snowing, clouds obscuring the view.
No excuse this go-around – snow ended Sunday, clearing all cumulus from the night sky.
Both dogs were groggy, unclear why we were up (yep, I woke the entire household). Nothing like setting your alarm late on a Monday night to check out an eclipse in the early morning sky 🙂
Moon is up mighty high at 1 a.m. so can’t say I captured awesome pics – but absolutely enjoyed the experience. WOW!
Goodnight stars
Goodnight air
Goodnight noises everywhere
Goodnight Blood Moon — hope to see you again in October.
