Getting Married Next May

On the drive back from Portland, Kara and I stopped in Aspen, CO for a few days of R&R before getting home to our house that we left about 7 months earlier.   While on a hike up a snow covered trail, I asked Kara to marry me. 

Lucky for me, she said yes and we just set a date for next May.  For multiple reasons, it seemed like a good time- even though it seems like a long time for now.   We’ve started putting together a seperate website for the wedding which we’ll be adding details to, such as lodging, transportation, things to do in the area, etc, over the next 11 months.

Ahhh… A good day

If my count is accurate, I’ve still only had 2 days in the last 5 weeks were I didn’t work, including weekends. 

So I decided to take yesterday and today off (and this weekend).  Yesterday, I got caught up on some stuff around the house.   This morning, I met up with Seth and Ben for a road ride.  I wish I didn’t have to be to work at 6:45am every morning.  It is such a great way to start the day with a road bike ride.  After that I came home, ate, and took a nap.  Then I decided to ride to the stop of Sandia peak on the moto.   28 miles of curvy mountain roads and hardly any cars today.  Aaahhh… good times  🙂

Hopefully tonight and this weekend, I get to hang out with Kara (and maybe squeeze in a mountain bike ride).  What a good day!
