my blog keeps geeking out on me. some video (i am literally clueless as to what one) is trying to get adobe flash to go crazy, apparently and I have to abort the script (what ever that really means) I am not real happy with it.
So living in the city is good so far. Thanks for unconsciously wondering.
I have been drinking a lot of coffee today. I had the day off, so I spent a lot of it at home, drinking coffee. My eyes burn, not sure why.
I also have spent to much time deleting songs from my iTunes folder…I accidentily made a copy of all my music, so i had doubles of almost everything…almost everything of 2600 songs is a lot.
the iPhone is getting better and better, probably my favorite toy so far.
This weekend my brother, his wife and all the kids are coming to visit. its going to be a zoo. I am really excited.
Have a good one.
well the weekend plan (I have friday thru monday off) was to meet my brother and his wife and 2 small dogs (that together weigh in at about 1lb) in the mountains for a little camping, we were packed ready, and on our way, as we pull up to the gate to enter the wilderness area, the sign reads, Closed until June 15 for all human activity. So we pull a u’ee and head home. now its saturday at 1:22 pm and we have reorganized the storage room outside and our camping gear. Well so much for sitting in a hammock surrounded by pine trees and cooking outdoors.
I dont have to do anything today, unless I want to. And I want to go to a book store and have coffee with a friend thats it. Then eat food in between.
yes it snowed again in denver. I guess its not that abnormal, except that last saturday it was 60 degrees and this saturday it might get up to 70. So in between the days of sunshine and warm weather its snowing.
And the tragic end of snowboarding season comes quick even as the slopes get 15 new inches of snow they close and I will forever feel like I didnt go enough, I am not sure if I will ever feel like I went enough. Maybe when I brake something.
This weekend I make a quick trip to New Mexico to bring some furniture up to colorado. I am going to ride down with my friend I met this week, he is a from Saudi Arabia, so the trip will be really interesting I will get to learn a lot about a totally different culture. Better than listening to Harry Potter, maybe.
This is something I have never heard of…
On March 29, 2008 at 8 p.m., join millions of people around the world in making a statement about climate change by turning off your lights for Earth Hour, an event created by the World Wildlife Fund.
Earth Hour was created by WWF in Sydney, Australia in 2007, and in one year has grown from an event in one city to a global movement. In 2008, millions of people, businesses, governments and civic organizations in nearly 200 cities around the globe will turn out for Earth Hour. More than 100 cities across North America will participate, including the US flagships–Atlanta, Chicago, Phoenix and San Francisco and Ottawa, Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver.
We invite everyone throughout North America and around the world to turn off the lights for an hour starting at 8 p.m. (your own local time)–whether at home or at work, with friends and family or solo, in a big city or a small town.
So I got a new book, (matt you will like this) The Last of the Mohicans, and Tammy Smiths book, Soul Healing. Pretty excited for both of them. I think the other books I was reading are going to the book shelf for another time. I always feel guilty if I don’t finish a book, but this time I think I am going to have to get over it, other wise I will get readers block.
Also the Kite will be visiting me tomorrow for a week, so the plan is to explore the beer of colorado. I told him it was the Napa Valley of micro brews, I think I read it somewhere and it makes me sound like I know what I am talking about.
I am really happy to be home after a long trip, to sleep in my own bed and be greeted at the door buy a wife and dog who missed me…well it doesn’t get better than that. Here are a couple of pictures from my time.
PS thanks for a you who read my blog, its nice to know you are keeping up on my exciting life.
PSS I finished survivor, and zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance and was really happy with both books, I am thinking about starting to read more modern books, with authors who are still alive.
We got a day off from doing wildlife counts, we are in trinidad, CO for the next 6 days. Its a strange little town, but if feels nice not to be going to a different town tonight. So far I have stayed the night in, Colorado Springs, Limon, Burlington, and now Trinidad. I look at a map and I think I have traveled on almost 1/3 of Colorado. Which is pretty cool considering I have only lived here since July. I will try and upload a couple of photos from the past couple of weeks, but I am using the hotels computer so I am not sure if it will work.
Right now I miss my wife and dog, and coming home at night, but still feel lucky to have a job that I like and feel extra lucky I am happy with life right now. Since I have been out I have been reading a lot and finished one book so far, Chuck Palahniuk, Survivor and recommended book from Ben Genson. I am also reading Zen and the art of Motorcycle Maintenance, And Demons, by Dostoevsky. So the reading is doing me good. I am good are you doing good? I miss you who read this. Ben and Shalom.
This is Mount Adams (At 13,941 feet in altitude, Mount Adams is ranked as the 66th highest mountain in the state of Colorado, according to wiki)and maybe Crestone Peak
Check out the wind at the peaks…over 100mph according to our helicopter pilot who happened to be flying up in it.
Here is a taste of what is to be me, I live a hard knock life, what ever that means to a person like me.
