Another day in the salt pit.

The wife went out to bingo with some of her teacher friends last night. Won tickets to the "3rd Annual Merry Jane Wellness Retreat with Snoop Dogg". To go, or not to go? That is the question. I'm not a fan, and I can't smoke pot, but it seems like a once in a lifetime freakshow I ought not miss.

Howdy.

I'm currently sitting in a parking lot waiting for people to show up. We were supposed to do some trail building, but winter came back and dumped snow on us. Ugh.

I also misjudged travel time and have arrived 45 minutes before the planned meetup time. Derp. I didn't bring enough coffee for this extra wait time. Derp.

I've ridden 7 days straight now. My legs are ready for an off day.

Currently drinking a nice cocktail in my front yard. Going to a friend's place to drink some beers and do more sitting outside, then dinner with another friend from out of town to follow.

Making moss sad in New Haven, Vermont
Rode with @w00dy, who chose early in the ride to fall off a log and submerge his ass in a morass. When he clambered up, he had a big wad of rotted leaves hanging out from the back of his shirt. I about died laughing, but he was less amused. We rode and rode with a nasty north wind, got real cold and eventually wound up at the house, where I couldn't untie my shoelaces because they were frozen solid. Beers and laundry followed.

No trail work performed due to all that white stuff on the ground, but we got in a good hike and went out for a decent greasy spoon breakfast after.

Just serviced the Fox CTD shock on the trail bike. I've had that seal kit in my tool box ever since owning the Spitfire v1 frame, but for one reason or another never did it on that bike and haven't done it on this new frame since purchasing it. Not sure why I procrastinated, it literally took about 20 minutes, including the cleanup and waiting for the pillow pack of Float fluid to squirt out. Now just have to wait for new reducers to arrive and then that bike is 100% ready to rolled through some mud.

Now if this god damned snow would just go away and more importantly stay away. It is snowing AGAIN. :banghead:

Just got back from my last concert of the season with Colorado Wind Ensemble. (I'm skipping the last to bring the kids to Japan to see my elderly grandmother.) I must have done something right in this past season playing with them because I got asked to play with them next year as well.

jeebus. i've ridden 2 days straight (happens about twice a year) and my legs are toast. many beers are being employed for recovery. just realized that there's a big difference between my recent "normal" rides, which are 20-30 mile mountain rides, ascents gravel, descents gnar, and a 15 mile up-n-down trail ride, which i used to do a lot more of.

I made Sauce out of the free tomatoes I was gifted. Did it the hardway. San Marrazanos are always so tasty. Cooked my meatballs in it. Homemade Raviolis from Rubinos.

My own world inside my head
Woke and made the breakfast for the family, boy went down for his morning nap, mowed the yard for first time this year, shot the bow probably two hundred shots, egg salad lunch, hiked and fished with the boy five miles in, home and making stuffed Bell peppers for dinner, stuffed with antelope burger, brown rice, little BBQ sauce and feta cheese.

Oh And it's been 65 all day and sun is shining. Amazing day

the hard way = blanching them to remove the peel? I find that's the only way to make good tomatoe sauce, but it's so much work. I usually reserve that for summer when tomatoes are at their most fragrant, and throw it a couple of leaves of basil from the yard. Oddly, I seem to be the only one in the household that appreciates this degree of simplicity....
