Yup.

So... We bought a motorcycle.

I'm somewhere between panic and pride. Riding a motorcycle is so fun you guys... But I know that we've now accepted an uncomfortable level of danger into our lives. We have mitigated or risks, to be sure, but the baseline remains. And truly, the same can be said of the mountains I climb every weekend and the rivers we ride in the spring. What can we do except accept the risk in exchange for joy? Maybe I'm being naïve, but we are not reckless people. We have calculated our level of crazy, and found it acceptable. 

Snowshoe adventures

The Locke in RMNP. Fantastic hike and a beautiful day. Things we have learned: summer trail maps in the winter = useless, frozen waterfalls coveted in snow look like hills, and it's difficult to jump in snowshoes. Good times had by all.

March

Back at it. This time as an instructor! So excited to get outside - Let's go.

Hump day

Happy Wednesday! I'm stuck in Indiana, so to cheer you up here's a picture of us riding a camel in the dessert, in India. Another happy thought: the two humans pictured here have, as of today, been together for 11 years. Cheers!
