Quality Time With Your Best Friend

Over the past month I have had a couple of friends that have had to say good-bye to their BEST friends. All of these dogs had wonderful long lives of skiing, eating, sleeping and climbing trees. Sammy and Kayla are now doggy saints that are watching over my dogs.

Altitude & Estrogen: Part II

Though I have not found any information to properly back up the effect of altitude on estrogen production, I would have to say that our emotions were certainly intensified. This was a good thing. Day 2 of the Exum Women’s Ski Mountaineering course was full of adventure. After hauling 50+ pounds of gear up to our camp, we set up tents, drank tea while it hailed on us, and then off we went for an evening ski.

Music + Good Food + Yoga Mat = Extreme Road Tripping

I estimate that I have driven 2500 miles in the past week and a half. Some travel for recreation and some for business. Long hauls for recreation, I admit, is a bit easier than when business related. Call me a fun hog!

Through these endless journeys I may have figured out how to make road tripping into another sort of adventure. Rather than gearing up with my camelback, pump and spare tubes, I grab my favorite CD’s, yummy food, and yoga mat.

Gals love dirt!

We spend numerous hours hiking and biking on beautiful trails. Most of the time we do not think of the time and energy put in by many to create and maintain these trails. There is no better way to get in touch with the sport you love than by helping to create the path that lets you do it.
