Rest In Peace Max

Thanks Max for being such a good friend.

I know it sounds cliche` but he was the best friend I could ever ask for. Always always up for a hike whether for an afternoon or for a week long journey. He was loyal, patient, spontanious and so consistently there for me more than any human I have ever known. Now if I could only find all of these things in a guy I would really be set.

He was the slyest at ending up in your lap when you drove

He was also really sly at evading photos

Damn I miss you so much already - I love you dog.

My mad crush on the Avett Brothers lives on thanks to Lindsay and Red Butte Gardens.

Thank you Lindsay.

Do yourself a favor

and rent this on netflix - you won't be sorry

Yesssssssssssssss

Yes, the day has come, My So Called Life is now on Hulu

Sorry Liz

I'm not going to take credit for the keen selection of Charlie's bracelets (because that was ALL him), but I do think I had some influence on the little fella, sorry Liz.

One in 8 Million

Came across this series of mini-documentaries on people living in New York. Love this one on Buster English. These little interviews highlight a random person living in the city each week which I love because one of the biggest things I miss about living in a big city, especially New York, are all of the characters that couldn't be more different from, which makes them all the more intriguing.

Labor Day 2009

This year instead of 3 days of back packing we're switching it up. What started as a plan to bike to St. George has morphed into biking to Lake Powell, but 300 miles is 300 miles right? right.

As always anyone/everyone's invited. And if your excuse is "I don't have a bike" - neither do I. Or if you're going with "I haven't done a lick of road biking all summer" - gotcha there again!

My answers to these problems are borrow and get going. Daily morning rides from my house to Big Cottonwood Canyon started this week. Planning to add a canyon ride a week in there as well. This week, Millcreek.

Come my friends it's time to start biking.

Finally a few pics to show - more here
