Travel Redux

Wednesday, August 29th, 2007

Back from my last (latest and final) "trip" to Fort Collins. Since July 16th, I've traveled to Fort Collins on 3 separate occasions, each trip precisely 2 weeks after the previous. With my trip out in April, that makes 4 times this year. I've had a blast each time. I can't ...

Moving Tricks II

Tuesday, August 21st, 2007

Buy moving boxes. If you choose to not buy, acquire a collection of identically-sized boxes. If you can, purchase a few varietes of such (ideally you'd get more than 1 of each variety...) for varying storage needs. They stack so much easier! For this trip, I sprung a leak in my wallet ...

On cycling and legs

Monday, May 21st, 2007

Note to self: When resuming recreational/commuting cycling after weeks (months) of inactivity, start slow or prepare for pain. On the flip side, I should have some stronger muscles here in a few days -- once they stop aching, that is.

Vacation

Monday, May 14th, 2007

My 5-day respite from work is coming to a close and I'm about to return to my work routine. I'm not sure I'm ready yet. I guess you really can't ever have enough R&R? I would really like to visit these places: The backwoods of Yosemite. Ireland Seattle (again) I think I can do #1 ...

Trip

Monday, May 7th, 2007

I need a break! So, Myles and I are going to go camp in Yosemite for a few days later this week. We're staying in a Housekeeping Camp River Unit and will be biking around the valley floor (and drinking beer and other spirits). Should be fun!
