Yeah It's a Rock...so What? 248/365

You can't really appreciate it until you add a little ME for perspective LOL!

I'm Back and I have a new Plan

I've been looking at some other blogs n stuff and I have decided I want to challenge myself to post (almost) everyday and do one of those 365 pictures thingys. Mine will be the self portrait thing...for good or for bad.

Whoa do I really mean that? I mean what if I get up late and feel bad and my hair is all funky and my pants don't fit right because I ate too much salt? Wow a lot of things could go wrong with this!

The good part could be that I could use this as a way to promote my knitting and my music and my crazy quilts even.

Day #1...me knitting on a mountain up Rampart Range Road

Sunday in the Mountains

We went up to Woodland Park Sunday afternoon. That means I have been in the mountains more this year already than I got to go all last year. Although we found some good spots the weather doesn't look like it will cooperate so I promised Jack we'd go when I get back from Illinois.

We did get to go to the Rampart Reservoir, my absolute favorite place in the world to be! The tree Deanna and Brian carved their initials in got gnawed on by a beaver :| (see video below)

My favorite pic of the day was the butt-crack rock lol! So I'm easily amused...SUE ME!

After a break at Sonic we cruised to Deckers. The Hayman fire was sooooooooooo damaging. You really have to see the whole picture to appreciate the destruction. Here's a link to Wikipedia on it.

Up to Pam's Cabin

Pam invited me to go see her cabin. How could I refuse!?! Great weather, sports car, free lunch...well wouldn't you go too? At Divide go right instead of left to Cripple Creek. Beautiful scenery there and back. The only bad thing is I got absolutely no work done today besides a load of laundry and a shower. I need to get busy and go water plants. ( o0O I wish we had seen a bear)

NEWS UPDATE!!! IT SEEMS THERE IS A WILD FIRE BURNING NEAR PAM'S CABIN. i SWEAR TO GOD I HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT!!!!
