Holiday weekend

The holiday weekend was pretty good. The goal was for relaxing. Enjoyed watching some fireworks by Horsetooth reservoir Friday night with the pups. The night was warm and I headed down towards the marina where they let off a few fireworks. Enjoyed hanging out under the stars with the pups.

Saturday was hot, but I was really looking forward to a nice bike ride. Rode up to Estes Park which I haven't done in some time and it kicked my butt, but was great. Karen and I want to ride from here up to Winter Park this summer on our road bikes, so this is step one in preparation.

Last weekend headed out to my friend Bill's in Winter Park and had a great time with him. Decided to take a look at the distances, and it looks like from here to his place will be just shy of a century, which would be totally cool. I've not ridden 100 miles in one shot yet. This would be fun. May have to loop around Winter Park (town) to get in the full 100 miles. Would be worth it.

Sunday was home and critter stuff. My lawn got mowed (which is pretty big), but thankfully only have to do it a couple times each year! Took the pups down to the river for play. Baka decided to roll in something really nasty, so it was a good reason for puppy baths.

Read a little and did an evening run up on the North Fork trail up the Thompson. One of my favorite trails. Ran out to the first larger meadow and hung out for a bit. So pretty. Was kind-of a contemplative weekend, but nice.
