A long weekend

Columbine alley, Band Camp

I have spent way too much time battling the downfall this year on this one trail. It's one of my main (fun) commute routes though...so it WILL be worth the effort. No one else apparently is riding this trail. You have (had) to burrow through the downed trees - until now. Still some more to go, maybe 2/3rds done? But holy cow my body is worked from the labor. That April 4 feet of snow sure broke off a whole bunch of trees and we'll be feeling the effect on our local trails for months to come.

A long weekend in more ways than one. Lots of ranch work, making a new paddock for the lil Snapdragon who just turned 2 months old yesterday! She's such a funny little punk. We moved large rocks from the old mine on the property to behind the barn where a new stall will be by summer's end. Move big rocks, then dirt, then crash. Popeye arms would be helpful.

I visited the local skatepark twice, yes TWICE, this weekend and skated with King Nimby. It's feeling more comfortable there now...a fast and fun ride. The carveability of the park is beyond belief. I cannot believe it's 5 minutes away from my house! Can I say YAY i live here?! Sorry....had to. BTW, when is the YAY100?
