Since we last posted, it looks like we’ll have a new president. What better tine to talk about new beginnings. I’m Medicare minus 3 months. I could probably do an entire post on that process, but I won’t. Instead, coming of Medicare age brings to mind retirement. To me, they should go hand-in-hand, but that remains to be seen. There was talk of my retiring last January 1. I moved my law practice to a larger firm in August of 2019, with the intent of ultimately having them take over my practice. When, I do not know, but it’s getting closer. What does retirement mean to me? Again, that remains…

We loved our RV weekend to Zion and Bryce so much (see The Beauty of a Basecamp), we bought one! Let me introduce you to Toto, the newest member of our family! We took ours on its maiden voyage two weekends ago to Moab, also in southern Utah, and home to Arches and Canyonlands National Parks. We have been there a few times before, including once for the Moab Folk Festival two years ago, when we rented a Teardrop trailer from Red Rock Base Camps. Highly recommended, in that they deliver the teardrop to your site, set it up, and pick it up when you’re done. No towing necessary! Wendy…

Just the thought of writing this post brings a smile to my face. This past weekend, Gail and I rented an Airstream Basecamp travel trailer (yup, an RV!) in Salt Lake and drove south to Bryce Canyon and Zion National Parks. We had never towed a trailer before, but Todd, co-owner (with his wife, Amber) of the rental company, Utah Caravans, spent as much time as we needed to get us comfortable driving with the trailer attached. So I guess this is part 2 of what will be our 3-part RV series. You might remember our earlier guest post, Living the RV Dream, by our friends, Rick and Shellie Unger….

Just a quick post to celebrate our successful climb of Mt. Evans last Friday. You may recall that last week I wrote about our plan to climb Mt. Evans in Assault on Mt. Evans. At the time, I had no idea if I were up to the task. I’d never even been to 14,000 feet, let alone tried to ride a bike up to that elevation. Well, not only did we succeed, but we had a blast. We lucked out with the weather. Little or no smoke from nearby wildfires that have been raging and sending unhealthy air into the region. At the upper reaches of the mountain, temperatures were…
