Long weekend solitude

Did the bike + hike up Croiser Mountain today.

My bike outstanding in it's field:

Long's Peak from the top:

Friendly reminder: "You are not alone."

A beer, a peach, and a cold river. What more could anyone want?

Kitchen sink?

The sun, the moon, a blade of grass, a tree, a bike tire, a flying girl, two bees and and animal I'm pretty sure is a tail-less coyote. How's that for covering all the bases?

A few pictures from this morning:

Melon-Head

The watermelons we get from our CSA about this time of year are out of this world. Just like this strange being that showed up in my kitchen last night.

Pop Top

Seeing as how it was the one year anniversary of our BVT (Big Van Trip), we decided we needed to get out and pop the top somewheres up high.

The camera got a good workout:

A few views from yesterday:

Kiddos makin' me proud

Apparently, with the proper motivation (all the candy they can eat, in this case) my kids can ride their 16-inch-wheeled bikes more than 16 miles. Whodathunkit?

M tells me "It's all about the basket":

A picture of a leaf after a rain that has nothing to do with biking, but I took this same day:
