Vakava Race Team: Adventures in Northfield
http://vakavaraceteam.blogspot.com/2014/10/adventures-in-northfield.html
Saturday, October 11, 2014. Last Saturday Nate and Craig invited everyone down to their neck of the woods for a long roller ski and brunch at Nate's house. We had a nice group of about a dozen of us. The brunch was great and it was fun to see Nichole as she nears the birth date of their first child. Some cross one direction, some the other. Some go diagonally, some straight across, and some down the road. Some just roll into a ball and lie there. Where are they going? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Tuesday, September 2, 2014. Core and mental toughness training with a bear. My kids, Will and Libby, and I recently visited Yellowstone National Park to visit my niece who is a rafting guide in Gardiner, MT. We were looking forward to an active, adventured-filled week, but we got more than we were hoping for. It was our second day in the Park. We awoke to light rain, so we. Decided on two shorter distance hikes. We didn't want to be too far away from the car in case the weather turned severe. Core and me...

Experiences of a fake XC ski racer, ex chef turned SAHD, damaged Classical Guitarist, philosopher, beef eater, and cork dork. Monday, October 25, 2010. It's supposed to get down to 25F on Wednesday. I'll take another look at their webcam then. Hopefully it looks like this with the guns going full blast. This is what happens when you don't watch out for the soft fresh snow at the bottom.
