Hiking/Paragliding – My favorite day!

Dinner out by the lake.  Great friends, great laughs, good food, great view...doesn't get much better

Dinner out by the lake Zell am see. Great friends, great laughs, good food, great view…doesn’t get much better…..at least I didn’t think so until the next day!  B is taking the photo.

07/17/13 Today we took a gondola up to the top of the ski resort on Mt. Schmittenhöhe.  Ahhhh I am in my happy place, hiking up there!  It was gorgeous beyond words, the hills were some killer climbing and it could have only been more perfect if Continue reading

Ragnar Rocks? or Ragnar Sucks?

Is the glass half full or is the glass half empty?  For me it’s both and generally has something to do with lack of sleep and/or hormones in it’s possibilities.

My very good friend Connie called and invited me to join her and some other friends to run the Wasatch Back Ragnar race.

Why Do We Live In Utah??

Shel has the best Thanksgiving decor for her house and our heads

Our usual Thanksgiving is spent putting the turkey in the oven, going up skiing and then coming home to a warm house and an even warmer meal.  Without having D around this year, not wanting us to feel sorry for ourselves missing him too much, I convinced B to deviate from our tradition and head south.   Continue reading
