Thank you, God, for this good life. Gratitude, Happiness, and Adventures in DC. Friday, October 19, 2012. While gentrification is an ugly word, it is definitely what is going on in my hood. 14th street is a major corridor through the area, connecting the recently revitalized shopping area in Columbia Heights (an urban Target! I don't even LIKE pickles and these were delicious. They came with a chipotle mayo that was absolutely fantastic. Happy with our meals, we decided to try out the desserts - namely, ...

Thank you, God, for this good life. Gratitude, Happiness, and Adventures in DC. Tuesday, February 11, 2014. The Camino is part I of 2014 adventures in turning 30. So once I paid my race fee (and my credit card stopped weeping), I started thinking about training. It is wonderfully easy to think about a race when it is still a safe 9 months away. You think of all the wonderful runs you will have and how much you enjoy being on your bike all over the city. And then you actually start training. But I was hap...

Thank you, God, for this good life. Gratitude, Happiness, and Adventures in DC. Friday, November 2, 2012. Well, spread out in three locations across the country, the Byrons made it through Sandy generally in one piece. Allison, safe in the confines of the midwest, went about her daily routine and accidentally kept calling it "Sally" (she was clearly very worried for our safety). Easy come, easy go, I suppose. Had I known, I probably would have insisted on decorating it each year, only to leave my par...

Thank you, God, for this good life. Gratitude, Happiness, and Adventures in DC. Friday, December 23, 2011. Friday Facts - Christmas Edition. 1) Christmas is my favorite holiday. 2) I LOVE finding the perfect gift for someone. It gets me into trouble because even if something costs too much, I'll probably buy it anyhow. 3) When I find a good gift, I get really excited to give it to that person. I love watching them open in. 6) I look forward to the Christmas Eve Party at the McClure's all year long. 13) I...

Thank you, God, for this good life: January 2012

Thank you, God, for this good life. Gratitude, Happiness, and Adventures in DC. Tuesday, January 31, 2012. I don't know why, but I thoroughly enjoy watching this. Denver isn't quite as quiet as DC was this early; I really used to enjoy being out and about by myself in the stillness of the city. Since Denverites are active no matter what time of day it is, I have to settle for delighting in the misfortune of others. How very unColorado of me. Some East Coast habits are just hard to shake. Over/under on ho...

Thank you, God, for this good life: Buen Camino
http://dctodenver-rudib.blogspot.com/2014/02/buen-camino.html
Thank you, God, for this good life. Gratitude, Happiness, and Adventures in DC. Monday, February 10, 2014. My first year, it was the Philly Tri. I raced it with my then-roommate Lauren, my parents came as spectators and it was a great day! We raced home (no pun intended), celebrated her birthday out with friends that night, then woke up and helped our friend Beth move the next morning. Still one of my favorite weekends. The next year, it was moving to Denver (and starting this blog. I'm not hiking to los...

Thank you, God, for this good life. Gratitude, Happiness, and Adventures in DC. Thursday, April 5, 2012. 1) I am impatiently awaiting the arrival of Mama B! Since I had to work this morning, she is making her way through Denver on a Super Shuttle, after having to wait at baggage claim since she was forced to check a bag. Apparently she was in seating zone 8 - a zone I didn't even know existed! I am more thankful than ever that I get to board first :). 2) Still not much going on here otherwise. Things my ...

Thank you, God, for this good life. Gratitude, Happiness, and Adventures in DC. Tuesday, May 8, 2012. I logged in a few weeks ago only to discover blogger had changed its format. I became a grumpy old man, complained about change, and then proceeded to skip writing my blog about my latest bike ride. When I started this blog, it was a way for my to calm myself about my impending big, scary move to Denver. I blogged a picture of my first packed box, of my apartment, and of our roadtrip across country i...
