Grand Lake, CO

Sarah took me to Colorado for our 1 year anniversary in June 2013.  Here's some great scenery from our cabin.

Walk in the woods

Me and Balto the dog in the woods - Lavalle, WI. June 2013

Long Winter

Late April snowfall 2013, took the dog out into the backyard woods.

Tough Mudder

In a sign of office solidarity, I agreed to run the Tough Mudder.  I'm glad I did it.  I'm glad I trained for it...

 The team - that's me top left of center in the red shirt

Double fisting a sports drink and beer.  My feet hurt so badly.  I left my shoes in a pile at the end of the race - they were toast.

View from Alcatraz

For the family reunion this year, we went to San Francisco.  Here's the view from Alcatraz Island Prison.  Would have been a great day for sailing.  Wish I had been out there.

Guys Weekend in Big Sky

Spring skiing and boarding in Big Sky, MT.  We drove in 18 hours riding the front wave of a snowstorm.  The interstate was getting closed behind us and I was driving in whiteout conditions switching between goggles with different tints every so often to gain some contrast.  It was worth it.

 Apres-ski Fat Tire

 Getting snow on the peak

No, I didn't try it.

TCSC Apostle Islands 2010

I belong to the Twin Cities Sailing Club that does social sailing and racing in conjunction with the Lake Harriet Yacht Club.  Every fall they do a large group sailing trip to the Apostles.  Sarah and I went this year and were fortunate to be grouped with some great people - "Dancing" Paul and Alyssa Fox, Kraig "Kraigles", Jim Musil, Ian Fitzpatrick, and a mother/daughter pair (whose names escape me right now - sorry).  Had a good time.

 My turn to clean up with Captain Jim
