http://tripieper.blogspot.com/2010/11/soaking-up-sun.html
Saturday, 13 November 2010. Soaking Up the Sun. The in-laws wanted to spend time in Death Valley for their 50th Wedding Anniversary. In late October who am I to argue? The family enjoying the sun at Furnace Creek. And checking out the charcoal kilns. Tracks in the sand dunes: Can you identify 1) roadrunner 2) a twig blown in the wind and 3) Robin aka dunewalker? Then we popped over to Yosemite for some pretty fall colors:. Labels: friends and family. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Soaking Up the Sun.

http://tripieper.blogspot.com/2010/04/im-not-mark-or-vinnie-or-geoff-and.html
Friday, 2 April 2010. I'm not Mark. Or Vinnie, Or Geoff. And certainly not Kole! Still, I was pretty tired by the time we finished and then still had to try to rustle up something to eat, drive home from Burlington, and get cleaned up before hitting the sack at about 3am. Luckily my. I was still feeling like I had recovered well so when Mark sent out a note to the SIR list for a mid-week permanent on Thursday before the big storm hit I just fell right into the trap.

Sunday, 13 June 2010. A Soul Reviving Day. Robin was planning to join the boys for a 1000km brevet in the Blue Mountains of Oregon leaving me unsupervised and gazing in wonderment at the weekend forecast. Mitchel suggested the Flying Wheels.

Social side emerged saying he hated crowds and waiting in line at sani-huts so how about doing the Mountain Loop Highway 200km perma. Ing to do t. His route and t. I could c...

Tripieper Tales and Travels: On Human Kindness
http://tripieper.blogspot.com/2010/03/on-human-kindness.html
Wednesday, 10 March 2010. I don't read or watch the news every day. Too much emphasis and top stories about war, hate, violence, and other bad stuff. A step outside into the "real" world time and again gives me a perspective I much prefer. A little example from yesterday:. Have Robin come from Lucerne to bail me out? Live at the airport ala Tom Hanks in Terminal? I was so grateful! I ended up with a better itinerary on Air Canada through Calgary on a half-empty plane. Whew - too much drama!
