Jan' Birthday over several days May 31

Good People--Steve, Cindy, John, Judy, the Lewis's, the Youngblood's, Phyllis, Heiti, Steve, Shelly, Ben, Amanda. Check out the photos on the right hand side of blog.

Good Food--After a time to get manicures/pedicures--late lunch at a crepe and tea place. Drinks and dinner at Avenue Grill, the buffalo was very moist and flavorful. Jan and all enjoyed Mama Mia.

Good Exercise--walked about.

Good Retirement--We are blessed and thankful for our health and friends.

A Problem! May 26

Running the wrong way was a problem. My time may have been better!

Bolder Boulder May 26

Good People--Ben, Amanda, Mom, Kortney, Paul (the 47 minute MAN), the old man.

Good Food--lots of free food--well not free comes with the participation fee. A Michelob Ultra, chocolate soy milk, which was like a dessert. Ice cream bars, energy bars--I picked up a jug of fruit and vegetable juice--taste like chicken no like grape juice. Pretty good.

Good Exercise--heavy on the exercise--I averaged 11-12 minute miles for the 6 miles. I ran the whole thing this year and beat my last years time by 14 minutes. Kortney improved even more and beat her old dad. All in all everyone improved their times--I'm proud everyone! It was fun, lots of people, not as many as last year. It was too cold, 50's, a little rain, after the race we were all cold so we didn't stay for the Memorial Day festivities--the 4 jet fly over and music.

Great Retirement--Jan and I rode the bus so we headed home, everyone else went to eat. We stopped at Gallup Cafe, Zuni and 32nd. Nice patio but too cold, more of a deli, very big sandwiches.

Bolder Boulder May 26

Can you believe it I ran the whole way--6+miles. More later.

Highland Canal Bike Ride May 23

Good People--Ray and Steve. You've met them from previous rides.

Good Food--Steve is leaving for Italy, Paris--tomorrow, so he didn't join us for lunch. But, he did send us to Los Dos Postillas at Holly and County Line(not sure of spelling and can you believe it I didn't take a picture). The place was busy for lunch on a Friday, our burro's were just right with the green chile sauce, good size and reasonable $6.50.

Good Exercise--We rode the Highland Canal from Gibbon Rec Center at University and Arapahoe north to Quincy Road--18 miles. Very flat, wide and the homes were out of our price range. Nice scenery of the mountains with some clouding before the rain. Very pleasant ride for visiting. We plan to do the entire Highlands Canal this summer--join us.

Great Retirement--We got out by 9:30 before all the others. Several runners and some other old retirees riding by.

Rockies Game May 21

Good People--John and Steve. Jan and I returned from Ketchum on Tuesday night, Steve called, we planned a Rockies Game outing the next day. Quick planning and easy to plan with guys--John is always willing to join in.
Good Food--Foot long brats and beer. An all American outing.
Good Exercise--We rode the Light Rail so not much exercise other than a little hike to pick our free tickets on the 4th row. Thanks you for the tickets--you know who you are.
Great Retirement--Some people were working on their cells during the game and some had to head back to the office. Not us! Nice weather, good people, good food--the Rockies lost in the 10th inning.
