Okay, don’t panic and nobody call us all worried that the sky is falling. I’ve had enough “Chicken Little” syndrome for all of us over the past couple weeks. A few weeks ago, the same day as Tri for the Cure, actually, I was going to bed and noticed that I was having [...]
Another good weekend is behind us. Saturday was a good all round day with a trip to the farmer’s market – my usual ride into Boulder to meet Hillary and Tana, but this time Tom and Steph joined us along with their kids, Allora and Amaya. Later that night Meg had a [...]
