Old Friend

The calendar has already told me, but this guy stopped to pose on his way for dinner letting me know that Spring is here:

Adventure Day

It's nice to see winter go down with at least a little wimper with some snow in town and in the hills, too. DA and I went up to the pass on Saturday to investigate.

Big views were the order of the day:

Soaking it in

And a video:

Desperate Times

call for desperate measures. Due to S's work schedule, I found myself on my mountain bike in the dark on a Saturday morning. Never regret an early start, though.

Spring Breakin'

We just returned from a few glorious sun-shiny days of skiing and hot-spring-soaking in Steamboat Springs. A few of the sights:

Happy St. Patrick's Day.

Glad I Brought It

I don't know how many times I've lugged the big camera skiing only to have the whole day be socked in and never see the sun. But days like yesterday make it worth it. More than a foot of new snow and bluebird. The skiing wasn't half bad either. ;)

Lunchtime

Had a front row seat watching this Redtail Hawk make a quick lunch of an unfortunate rodent.

More Nica

I've had 95% of this video from the Nicaragua trip completed for a few weeks now. Finally put the finish on it.

Here's a First

Took both kids skiing by myself today. Here's how the camera phone saw it.

What kind of Dad lets his 7-year-old ride the lift by herself?!
