Another bike trip to a park, but this time it was to Bear Creek Lake Park. The intention was to bike to Bear Creek, then south on the C-470 trail and the north on the Platte River trail, back to home. But a combination of no map, poor signage, and a slight lapse in our navigational abilities turned the trip into an out and back instead. But, now we know where to go for next time.

Another beautiful day with lots of folks out enjoying it. This was a good ride, but hillier than yesterday. Up and over the dam and then a stop on the summit of Mt. Carbon.

Another trip to Cherry Creek Park, but this time on my bike. Mikell and I biked from home to the park on Cherry Creek trail, and then a loop through the park, before leaving through the east entrance and heading back home. It was another glorious day, with so many people out enjoying it. I was biking in shorts and a t-shirt. This won't last much longer, though...snow is in the forecast for next week.

Woke up this morning to fine knees, so decided to squeeze in a run at Cherry Creek Park in between pie baking. It was another unbelievable day…almost 70F. I ran in short sleeves and capri tights and was hot. It was a nice baking break.

I was going to go for a run today, but after several hours of running errands...getting T-day supplies, mailing out several packages, and visiting the Apple Genius Bar to see if they could fix the well-known WiFi issues with the iPhone 4S, including mine (they could not fix it, but they gave me a new phone for free (sweet!))...my knees were screaming in pain. I wore some shoes I haven't worn for years, and I think they aren't very knee-friendly. Although, they are ugly enough to qualify as "orthopedic," so you'd think they would be fine. So, with two strikes against them...painful and ugly...they are on their way to Goodwill.
