We're kicking off the 2024 Secret Santa! Exchange gifts with other monkeys - from beer and snacks, to bike gear, to custom machined holiday decorations and tools by our more talented members, there's something for everyone.
Haley is working on lifting her front wheel on the 20".
6th coat into stripper on the Giant. This paint is fucking indestructible. If I can't get it all I think I will pull a favor, which I'm trying to avoid, and get it sandblasted by a friend.
About dinner time, so time to talk about Haley's sports this year.
Devo program is on. But she doesn't want anything about it next year and no push to competitive skiing. I'm fine with that, but it will be interesting next year to see what Haley wants to do. Gymnastics for non-ski season and maybe volleyball, but she wants nothing to do with normal group activities.
I wasn't going to point out that if someone has no fear while skiing and gymnastics training, they are a freestyle skier waiting to happen. I did shut down racing BMX and told her we can get enough just from riding mtb. I might direct her secondary summer sport towards Ninja Warrior, which she already wants to do. Doing my best to raise a Colorado kid.
Last two days are the first days in a few months where it actually felt cool again inside in the day and into the night. 80 degrees outside for 22hrs a day has been heating buildings to crazy temps and no one has AC. Big wind-storm has been blowing for 2 days and although not a lot cooler, saw 80 yesterday, it feels way cooler inside and finally "nice" inside and out. That means winter is coming soon, but after Texas last week, it's a revelation.

Ahhh, back home from a 12 day vacation in Montana. Everything up there was pretty damn cool, some amazing terrain, hikes, and riding.
But it did reinforce just how damn good that we have it here in the JH area, too.
