I think the TV script writers call this entry a time shift. It is when they just up and move the story ahead without much explanation other than they were tired of the old storyline. This is one of those except I will tell you why. I have been lazy about making time to sit down and write up. At…

Gonna Leave My Woes Behind
After the debacle in Colorado Springs, I lost all interest in Colorado Springs. Too bad because I would have liked to have seen more of it. But My brain shifted into drive mode and nothing was going to keep me there. I decided to drive up to Breckenridge as part of my Ski Town Summer Theme. That never really took off as a…
Tear the Roof off the Sucker
Very tired from the successful incline climb and impending bad weather, I thought it was high time I broke down and got a hotel room, or with my budget, a motel room. Not many people know that Motels and Hotels are different (at least according to Webster). Motels came into existence with the advent of automobiles and freeways. Their main…
Aint No Mountain High Enough
Back in 1996, I had the opportunity to move to Colorado Springs for my job, the now defunct telecommunications company called MCI. They sent me out for a few days to check it out. The short impression was that I was underwhelmed. There was just too much dirt and I just didn’t get the feel of the place. I ended…
I got work to do
I know it has been a long while since I did a proper post. I have one written up and ready to go as soon as I attach a couple photos on a proper Internet connection for my laptop. Maybe a coffee shop tomorrow. Trailer is doing good but needs some downtime so I can do some basic maintenance and…
Photograph
I think I have figured out how to add pictures from the trip to an album on the Photography Tab. It is slow going because, I have to pull them from my different cameras and phones then lower the file size of the photos so that viewing them doesn’t suck too much out of your monthly cell phone allowance. I’ll…
Mashed Potato Time
I was hoping that by heading east across Wyoming I would sooner or later get out beyond the range of the wildfire smoke. Three days later I found myself in Gillette, Wyoming’s tourist information asking them how to get around the high wind warning. I have been trying to avoid the interstates on this trip. Mostly because I think they…
I Wanna talk About Me
New Page added. I put it off as long as I could but there was a push for me to fill out the heretofore blank About Me page. I couldn’t sleep last night so typed it in on my phone. There you go.
I’ve seen Fire and I’ve seen Rain
I spent a Sunday afternoon in the shopping and entertainment district of Boulder Co. No easy feat in this outdoors crazy town. Boulder and half of Denver were taking part in an afternoon bicycle race in and around town just as I was driving into town. I had to wind my way through a maze of blocked off and one…
Like A Hurricane
After my peculiar night in Chadron, Ne, I was off to see what I really came to Nebraska to see, Carhenge about an hour deeper into Nebraska but on my way out too. Not sure of the logic but a farmer got it in his head to bury and stack old cars in his field. I first saw it when I…
