Just for Fun
Our van “The Great White Whale” is our favorite way to travel. Here, to take in fall colors in the Crested Butte area.
Our cat Leon joins us on our van trips.
He enjoys exploring as much as we do!
Tom and I enjoy simple hiking…
…or sometimes climbing peaks. Mt. Harvard for instance…
…or Mt. Shasta.
We also enjoy more intense adventures. Hiking canyons…
…or rapelling them!
Climbing peaks in the sierras…
…or biking trails.
Tom will occasionally join me on a road ride. But only while wearing tiger ears.
To keep in shape, I run. Though this marathon was an anomaly.
I love to eat good food, especially local fare wherever I am. Whether on a farm in New Zealand…
…or the Pueblo Chile Festival.
But our cat loves it best when we engage in some championship napping.
