Sorry. I have Monkees on the brain for some reason. That said, today’s ThrowBack Thursday post is indeed another hodgepodge of photos from various locations along the Colorado Front Range. Let’s start by pub crawling back through time to the end of March 2009, just … Continue reading Another Pleasant Valley Hodgepodge
On my most recent visit to The Parkinson’s Specialist Place, I was given a supply of Crexont, a new formulation of Levodopa. It’s an extended-release formulation, enabling me to take just three doses a day, which kicks the crap out of the six times a … Continue reading New Levodopa Formulation
Due to a combination of poor health and flat-out laziness, it’s been a month and a half since I last updated y’all on my nicotine trials. To make a long story short, I was convicted on all counts. No, wait! Not that kind of trial! … Continue reading Summary of Nicotine Results
In May of 2010, I headed out with a few friends on our roughly annual western Colorado mountain biking trip. We started with a shortish ride at Red Mountain, near the city of Glenwood Springs, Colorado. There wasn’t a whole lot to see on the … Continue reading Glenwood Springs, Moab, and Fruita (May 2010)
Ladies and gentlemen, boyds and gorillas, today marks a major milestone in my life. Ten years ago today, I received my Parkinson’s Disease (PD) diagnosis. Yup, believe it or not, it has been an entire decade. In that time, I have been through quite a few ups and downs with PD (not to mention other aging-related issues like arthritis and generalized hurtiness disorder). This special occasion, combined with the fact I have been failing to update this blog regarding recent developments in my PD treatments, has got me ta thinkin’ I should give y’all an update on my PD status. The one thing I have kept you up-to-date with is Lions Mane Mushrooms. If you’ve missed my lions mane posts, click here for the latest. I hope to get you some updates shortly regarding Nicotine, timed-release Levodopa, and a stool softener (and of course, this week’s ThrowBack Thursday).
In August 2010, a friend and I ventured into the mountains west of Denver, Colorado to partake in Boreas Pass Railroad Day. Boreas Pass sits between the towns of Breckenridge and Como. These days, you can drive a car over Boreas Pass, but at one … Continue reading Boreas Pass and Como (21 August 2010)
In May of 2010, I headed out with a few friends on our roughly annual western Colorado mountain biking trip. But this time, we went farther than western Colorado: to the town of Moab in eastern Utah. My friends, who were all in much better … Continue reading Arches National Park (May 2010)
Two months ago, I took you on a magical voyage to a land called Homestead Meadows. In that post, I explained that Homestead Meadows contains historic remnants of eight homesteads, accessible via 15 miles of trails. But even back in 2008, a 15-mile hike was … Continue reading Homestead Meadows (Summer 2008)
Today’s ThrowBack Thursday takes us to the greater Glenwood area of west-central Colorado in late April 2009. My mountain biking buddies decided we should ride the Forest Hollow Trail. The plan was to use our multiple cars to do it as a shuttle route. That … Continue reading Glenwood Canyon (April 2009)
Welcome to another ThrowBack Thursday hodgepodgery! Today, we visit three locations. We’ll start at a scenic overlook just inside Colorado’s Golden Gate State Park. The date is May 25, 2009 and we are visiting Panorama Point Scenic Overlook & Picnic Area. But I didn’t bring … Continue reading Mountains, Foothills, and Wind Tunnels
