Spring Happenings

Hey friends!  Decided to post an update during a much needed break.  It's been a month since the last post and nothing is as it was...so that's fun! Onward for the details: 

First, since I'm sure you're dying to know.  My fellows ruggers and I voted and we are now the fierce Fort Collins Cutthroats.   However, our colors are light blue and ...black (I think).  We all know how nicely blood comes right out of light colors...  We start outside practice this week with a potential coach so hopefully we'll get some time on the pitch this spring.  It's been a little start-stop-y due to lack of ladies and other teams who want to let us try out our sweet rugby skills.

Fort Collins has been kind with her weather.  Nothing too severe and I've been able to leave my road tires on my bike, though sometimes the cold wind requires I don my uber-fashionable snowboarding helmet, ca-ute!

I did make it up to the mountains with some friends who lit the motivation fire a few weekends ago.  Awesome time at ski cooper and got to see the new overnight yurts ( <-- click this link! ) at the Tennessee Pass Cookhouse.  What an amazing spot!  They just keep getting better and having a beer on the porch looking out to Mt Massive and Elbert made me appreciate the time I spent in Leadville even more.

X-Country skiing away from the cookhouse.

I'd like to post about the venture my team and I decided on since we bagged the Brazil green roofs idea, however I think I'l leave it with that photo for now.  Happy Sunday, stay tuned!
