    A Saturday Ride

    May 2, 2026

    We have a beautiful day here in Colorado. I mounted the red steed and took a bicycle ride along Spring Creek Trail out to Spring Canyon Park and back, about 7.6 mile round trip. Lots of people were out enjoying the weather so the trail was busy. And the park was busy with little kids’ soccer, and the pickle ball courts and tennis courts were full. I spotted a couple of young girls sunbathing in bikinis and almost rode off the trail. I’m gonna call it wildlife. No image but I did stop for this image on the way back because I like the idea that we can feel like we’re in a natural wooded area outside of the city while still in the city. I hope you are enjoying your Saturday!

    Enjoy Your Saturday

    January 16, 2021

    There was no sun cresting the eastern horizon this morning due to clouds. However, it was an amazing 43 degrees with a steady breeze from the north. In the above image you can see the wind reshaping the clouds continuously. Stopped and grabbed a mocha on the way home and did something unusual for me. I walked in, greeted the baristas and then ordered without realizing I did not have my mask on. I ran back out to the car and put it on. It’s moments like that when I know I’m not doing a very good job of staying present to life but somewhere else in my head. I’m going to enjoy my Saturday and hope you do as well.

    Morning Coffee

    April 6, 2019

    Meeting with a friend for coffee on a Saturday morning is always a good way to start the weekend. I’ve arrived early to journal, enjoying the feel of the pen in my hand. Yesterday was a busy day and realized I did not write at all when I opened my journal this morning. We are expecting another nice day here in Colorado. Hoping you have a great weekend!

    If this is an indication of the way this day is going then I’m all for it. Have a super Saturday!

    And a thought for the day. “It ain’t what you don’t know that gets you into trouble. It’s what you know for sure that just ain’t so.” – Mark Twain

    Not to bad a way to start a Saturday morning. Had to get up early but well worth it. There is a feel of Fall in the air. Needed a light jacket. Next on the list, relaxation time at a local coffee shop then off to the farmers market.
