Finally starting to shake this head cold I've had since Thursday. Not sure if riding is on the agenda.
I didn't even know, thanks cell phone alarm!
Freaked out when I walked into the kitchen and the microwave said it was already 4:30
Coffee in hand. Sitting by the fire.
Dull and drab day. Kids mercifully slept in, so time change isn't going to have a huge effect. I'm getting ready to bring my boy to the farm museum.
I'm finally feeling like ive shaken the cold that gripped me for the last three weeks. I will try and ride later... But the past week of constant rain will surely have made things messy. And the fact that the park is closed due to a storm that knocked down trees and will also make it a bit tricky.

We let our kids stay up past their bed times to help with the time change. Seems to have worked.
We put our kids in bed at the usual time, changed the time on their Ok to Wake clock before leaving the room, and told them they needed to stay in until the green light was on. Wife took pity on them at 6:30 new time (15 minutes before the light) but overall the stratagem worked.
Where’s mah bean juice dammit ?
Preroll worked. We drank a $400 bottle of wine. I left my Bike outside unlocked. Picked up a bag of Miller Genuine Draft pounder Cans out of the Bongshed. I have wet clothes that are not mine on the floor in my Apartment. Kleenex everywhere. Remote was in the Fridge along with a sixpack of Yuengling? Leftover Bowls of Frito Pie all over the place. The Bowls are not from my house? I did not have the makings of Frito Pie at my house? The Bottle of Franks I just bought is empty along with the Bottle of Titos I got for my Birthday.

I would go for the former.
This is all dependent on if you've had your morning poo yet.
We have about 50-60 downed trees on our network.Cold.
Swapped the winter tires on this morning. Then rode local spot after. Lots of trees down from recent winds.
Damn that sucks. Not as bad here, but there are trees down everywhere because of the recent winds.We have about 50-60 downed trees on our network.
But hey, at least it isn't snowing.... or is it over by you guys?
Or however its spelled
Discs all day. And I'm a fan of di2
We got sleet. Moved most of contents of Conex into the shed.
No snow here. wet though...
and slippery as all heck with all the leaves down and wet.
Rode this afternoon with billions people on the trails. I hope it gets real cold real soon, that shall help with the crowds.
Cooked a ham. Couscous and green beans on the side, and some salad. Wine or triple...
Had to take a taste (wet my lips) damn that was good. Too bad I will never get to drink it . Blanton's Bourbon, $130 for two bottles
Still can't see your picture for some reason.No snow here. wet though...

Interesting day with the girls today. Went up to Golden and saw @Nick to get my skis adjusted for my new boots. Had lunch and spent some time at playground by his house afterwards. The decided to go to Costco because I forgot a few things, but at the last minute doglegged to the REI flagship store in Denver to see if they had boots that fit Haley just to get an idea if hers really are too big, as I think they are.
While we were there they had climbing sessions on the big wall and she asked if she could do one, so why the hell not? She did a warm-up then wanted to hit the big side of the wall and decided to run the crack, which is pretty advanced.
(big crack on the right side of the arch/edge of the wall; for the climbers, they rate it as a 5.9b for adults) She had to take a few breaks because they don't allow chalk and her hands were sweaty, but she got it pretty quickly. Once she got about halfway up (60ft wall), she acquired an audience of a flowing 10-15 people. Lots of employees just stopped to watch her with that 'wow' look on their faces and when looking to one another. Same with customers who had obviously climbed before with a lot of questions about how old she is and how long she's been climbing, comments about how fluid of a climber she is, etc. It was pretty fucking cool. We need to spend more time at the wall...
Then went to a ski shop because REI's ski dept was way too busy. Confirmed that Haley's existing boots just don't fit correctly. They're a size too large so we'll be setting them aside for next season. Also found a season old pair of ones that do fit (tried on new ones) for $40, so we'll be picking the up during the week when the seller gets back into town.
And when we did finally make it to Costco, we ran into a friend and his daughter who we rarely ever get to see. He got me started making my own bacon and offered to let me borrow his deli slicer for an extended period as he never uses it anymore.
Hell of a day when I was just tasked with keeping the girls occupied.
