Day two of 5:30 am cross-fit. Twelve hours after, and I’ve got sore muscles in places I didn’t know I had muscles.

More Moyer goodness, DaP. Moyer’s career has lasted as long as my post-high school life. So far.

I remember when he was first with the Cubs. Good times… Gooood times.
This was a month after I graduated from high school.

Let’s go Rockies!

I added some script and scroll to the camera tattoo last year and just realized I never really documented the addition.

I’m scheduled for more inking in a couple weeks. Maybe you’ll see it next spring.

The Lower North Fork Fire, about a 40 minute drive south and west, is now 100% contained. A half-hour before these pictures were taken from my front-porch last Monday, when the fire blew-up, the skies were blue. Fierce winds fanned the flames and carried the smoke south into the city. I worry we are in for a dry and ashen summer.

I’m just finding what is apparently a popular photo-a-day challenge (http://www.fatmumslim.com.au/2012/02/march-photo-day.html).

I’ve been doing photo-a-day for a few years now. I don’t always publish the results (which is key). I sometimes get lazy creatively (which is easy in the light-brown haze of late-winter in Denver).

This type of list, a daily assignment, is a really great find. Even if you don’t participate in the challenge, it’s a great quick-inspiration resource.
