This camping trip happened after my long weekend in Steamboat but before my Fourth of July trip and the epic Tuesday evening bike ride, both of which I posted about before this. I’m a mess, someone plz rescue me. But I still wanted to share about our creative offsite gathering…thing! I had such a great time and …
A Tuesday Evening Spin
Isn’t summer the greatest? Like, specifically summer evenings after work when the sun bathes the streets in a goldeny orange-yellow an hour or so before it gets ready to set. Like when a cool breeze rolls in but short sleeves will do just fine. I’m feeling very lucky lately for a flexible work schedule that …
Fourth of July at the Lake
Trips to the lake are never long enough. Every year from age 2 to 20, I spent the summer at Estling Lake in New Jersey with my sister and grandparents. It was my favorite part of the whole year, and it still is even though I’m only there for a few days once a year—maybe …
Weekend Riding: RCCBDR In Steamboat Springs
I. AM. SO. BEHIND. I have a couple posts in my queue that I’ve yet to finish writing let alone hit publish on. But I’ve been living life, ya know, and I’m OK making that a priority. Today I’m getting my act together and sharing my long weekend adventures in Steamboat at the end of …

Weekend Riding: Floridians Can Climb Mountains, Too
I think my Florida friends are following me…and I don’t hate it. First, my friend Courtney and her husband moved to Denver a few months ago and now my cycling buddy, Dave, is spending the summer in Boulder. Dave is actually the first person I rode with in Florida after I got my bike(s). I …

The Best Sunday & The Importance of Girl Time
I don’t get real honest-to-goodness girl time that often because, honestly, I just don’t have that many close girlfriends. I definitely could. I’ve met so many great women here in Boulder over the last year and a half, but I need to be more consistent at checking in and making plans and investing time in …

Trail Running: Travois Trail at Centennial Cone Park in Golden, CO
I got the dates wrong the first time I tried to run here. ^^^ This was the road to the trailhead; the entrance is behind me. Travois Trail is open to runners and hikers on ODD numbered weekend days and mountain bikers (and really ballsy drop bar cyclists) every other day. Even though I checked the date …

Hiking On A School Night: Lookout Mountain
I’m still playing catchup over here after some long work weekends and a weekend away in Santa Fe, but I wanted to get this one out because I just had a really fun time with my friend in the mountains. Here we go. A couple weeks ago, Courtney (my new-to-Colorado friend), and I planned a …

Memorial Day Weekend In Santa Fe, New Mexico
“If discontent is your disease, travel is your medicine.” -Jedidiah Jenkins At the end of 2017, I was so sick. I was drowning in regret after dismantling the most important relationship I had ever had. My anxiety and stress tore ulcers in my stomach. Every night I cried in a ball on my bedroom floor, …
