The last couple weeks have been filled with house duties.  I feel like a logistics company with the amount of stuff coming in.  I’ve put a lot of furniture together and the picture below is the new couch and fire table on the patio.

I spent all of Sunday in the garage putting in shelves and organizing all the building stuff the previous owner left and our camping stuff.

On Saturday, I met Mike at Winfield and paced him over Twin Lakes to Hope Pass.  We were a little slow on the uphill, but Mike lit it up on the way town and we beat the time he wanted.

Google magic helped the picture looking South from Hope.  Huron Peak is to the left in the distance.

The dogs and I went back to Leadville to watch Mike finish with his best time ever – sub 29 hours.

The dogs and I have developed a routine of going to the dogs park before sunrise.  Some days we are treated with incredible views.  The weather and fires make for interesting cloud formations – a couple of them are below.

Tracy arrives tomorrow.  We are excited to see her.
