Boulder's outdoor rink downtown
After his fight Thursday, took Hudson up Green Mountain on Friday. The summit was covered in clouds

Dry Creek & Green Mountain West on a Windy Friday
Today was a tough day at work for a few reasons: I had to write six annual reviews for my team (boredom but important) and I was hung over (not exactly - just groggy with the taste of whiskey lingering)
Started off taking Hudson to Dry Creek - great sunrise to the east and alpenglow on the Indian Peaks to the west
Here is 10 seconds of trying to keep pace with Hud
After the first 3 reviews were done I took a break and we drove up Flagstaff Road to Green Mountain West to summit Green Mountain - Hud's 4th time
Great view of Bear / saddle / South Boulder
Here is 16 seconds of Hud on the trail. This was a good section - many section had pretty deep drifts

Six Months
Sunrise yesterday from the summit of Mount Sanitas
I have an office now here at the Boulder rental as the owner moved her stuff out. It's nice - instead of working in the dark basement I can look outside. It definitely helps pass the time on calls. The neighbour's cat is particularly amusing
So - yesterday at 9:55pm MST was 6 months since my last cigarette. Thus I won:
- $500 cash
- $100 bottle of good whiskey
- A night of drinking / talking the Vancouver Canucks with my Chicago pal in Denver
- A smoothie
Could not have done it without Scott Anderson back in Seattle
Today it snowed so Hudson and I got out early before the inevitable auto accidents during the morning commute. He was able to do his first summit of Mount Sanitas (he blends in - especially the second pic)

Colorado & Manitou Springs
Strange sunrise on the drive down New Year's Day
Pikes Peak (I did just read it is not Pike's Peak - it once was)
After the race we went to Manitou Springs which sounded like an amazingly quaint historic town at the foot of Pikes Peak. It was both quaint but also cheesy - somewhere between Niagara Falls and Breckenrdige
We made it through Denver as the Broncos were playing Kansas City. I say they'll lose 24-9 to Pittsburgh this weekend (I'm feeling confident in predicting as I won $130 in my old Hewlett Packard Finance Department NFL pool this season)
