C • I remember that sort of thing! 4

Wow! I could really feel that I hadn't done this in a while. I now have Jello arms.

Starting to make plans to attend O-ringen and the Scottish 6 Days. Time to get serious!

Classic Green course, Southwest Spring B-Meet in the Sun

This went much better than the past two days. I didn't have many navigational errors, and I felt that I was moving pretty well. I had a little trouble with #3, mainly because it was a faded bag that was well hidden in some tree branches. Also, the descent down from #8 was a little treacherous with the rocks and the cactus.

Overall, this was a great little mini-vacation. I got in some orienteering, I got to visit with Caitlin, and I had 3 days of summer before heading back to winter in Denver.

Middle Course at Southwest Spring B Meet in the Sun

Hot again, and still as much cactus, if not more! I was doing better in the beginning, but then messed up to #4, getting halfway to #5 before I realized my mistake. Then I started to climb the hill to #7, lost my footing and fell all of the way back down. After that, the wind left my sails and I just wanted to get done. Messed up again at #12, watched Barb go to a control to see if it was ours...it was, so I went over and punched in. Then to the finish. Another not-so-stellar day. But still, remarkably fun.

Long Green Course, Southwest Spring B Meet in the Sun

This was pretty much fun. It was very hot...70+ degrees, so I had to get used to that. And I had to careful of all of the cactus (saguaro, ocotillo, cat claw, barrel, prickly pear, cholla, etc.!)...I took off my shoes about 10 times to pull out spines. I did okay, just messing up twice on the same control that was #3 and #9. It was all good.

On the treadmill at Shepherd University's fitness center with Mom. I left NJ a day early to miss the big storm, so now I'm camped about at Mom and Don's until tomorrow, when I head to my sister's place. I have 2 birthday parties this weekend...Meg's husband's and Marit's husband's. Should be fun.

That's right...I said running. Ha!

Working out in the fitness room in the hotel.

A hike around Wash Park again. And now, for the first time, my Garmin won't download. I'll have to find the old AP threads that give suggestions on how to fix that.

Here is the promised picture of the Bigfoot statue:

Have I mentioned that I love living in Denver?
