Another Thursday, another mountain pass. Yes, my folder fulla unprocessed photos tells me that the next hike I went on after Vail Pass, was Hoosier Pass. For this hike, I was with a bunch of strangers. Thanks to Meetup.com, I have been on probably half … Continue reading Hoosier Pass, Colorado (June 2013)
I recently turned 50 years old, and I can’t wrap my head around it. When I think of how I define myself, when I think of who I am, I picture the guy in the photo above. I picture a carefree young fool. Someone not … Continue reading Turning Fifty
About a month ago, I posited that U.S. Interstate Highway 70 through western Colorado is the most scenic length of Interstate in the country. Consider today’s post to be a continuation of that thought. In June 2013, I headed back up I-70 with a small … Continue reading Vail Pass (June 2013)
I do not like green eggs and phlegm.
I do not like them, Auntie Em.
I do not like them there nor here,
I do not like them with dark beer.
I would not eat them while in jail,
I would not while I’m out on bail.
I will not eat them in a stream,
I will not eat them with sour cream.
Not with parmesan that’s been grated,
Not even if they’re laminated!
I would not eat them off your fender,
I will not drink them from a blender.
I won’t insert them in my nose,
Won’t suck them through a garden hose.
I will not dip my *@!$ in them,
I DO NOT LIKE GREEN EGGS AND PHLEGM!
As you may or mayn’t recall from a previous ThrowBack Thursday, the first thing I did with my Good Camera was to take it for a stroll around downtown Denver. Well, a couple months later, I decided it was time for a similar stroll. This … Continue reading Denver, Colorado (late Spring 2013)
And now, a random haiku for your enjoyment:
Bite me viciously
If you wish to do so, Mike.
I mean, why not, eh?
And now, a northern Colorado haiku:
Geese are everywhere
Canada geese, full of poop
Make them go away
Ladies and gentlemen, ThrowBack Thursday (TBT) has returned! But it’s a pretty weak return. I’m so exhausted from writing up the last two weeks in Colorado, that I’m making this week’s TBT a tiny one. So here ya go…the ghost town of Wallstreet, Colorado…pics taken during the Spring of 2013…
That’s it for now. Tune in next week for a full-size TBT.
When it came time to head back to Denver, I knew I didn’t want to go back the same way I had come (see the “Delay 5” paragraph under Day 3). So, rather than go straight south to I-70, I went east to the town … Continue reading Colorado 2022 Trip Report (the last few days)
On day six, I finally got to my true destination: Dinosaur National Monument. This place is somewhat like North Dakota, in that no one has ever been there, so I wasn’t sure it actually existed. Well, now I know…Dinosaur National Monument DOES exist, and it’s … Continue reading Colorado 2022 Trip Report (Day 6)
