Come for Adventure. Stay for the Ride!
When I heard the movie, Contagion released in 2011, starring Matt Damon, Kate Winslet, and Gwenyth Paltrow, had reemerged as a popular film, I shrugged. I didn't want to watch a sensationalized version of coronavirus that would freak me out. From Wikipedia Commons Then a week passed. The outbreak of coronavirus statistics shot up like...

LOL! Okay, so I don't normally start a blog post with LOL. But this deserves a big LOL. Of course, when anything embarrassing happens to me, or at least would embarrass a normal person, I have to share. Personally, I have very little shame. It all started with a bike ride. I have been a... Continue Reading →
Happy St. Patrick's Day! Weird, isn't it? With cancellations and bad news updating by the minute, it makes the Irish celebration a wee bit damp. Not to mention the drizzle lightly fallin' outside my window. Good thing I have a ridiculous video for yah. If you can handle four of me, then have a look!... Continue Reading →
A week ago, I traveled from Denver International Airport to Madison, Wisconsin for my mom’s 90th birthday. Did I worry that I may not be able to purchase hand sanitizer?

I planned to try AT-skis (all-terrain) and backcountry ski to Francie's Cabin, four miles from Breckenridge, Colorado. It's one of the 10th Mountain Division huts.

When I explored the Dillon, Colorado Ice Castle last Saturday, I transcended into another world. Surrounded by frozen water, this new fantastical planet swept me away to a frigid continent where textures and colors combined. A perfect environment for a broken toe. My feet sank into the strange new surface like quicksand. It sucked at... Continue Reading →
I’ve had a couple of setbacks over the last few years. It took me a while to recover from a partial knee replacement because I had to give myself blood thinner stomach shots. They slowed the healing process waaaay down. Then, I worked with a personal trainer and finally turned the corner. Yay! But, I... Continue Reading →
Winter can be magical. The snow becomes a blank canvas for shadows and patterns. I enjoyed contributing to the texture last weekend at Breckenridge Ski Resort. Here are my faves for almost Wordless Wednesday. Beyond Bowl enticed me. See the untracked snow beyond? Could I to stay high enough to make fresh tracks? I could... Continue Reading →
