My blog chronicles my life as I travel through this world as I know it. Do not be surprised to read about things that I like to participate in, people I enjoy being around or who are inspiring to me, or things that I find absolutely appalling. Be warned that I will shamelessly post photos of my wife, son, my dog and my bicycles.

Today was the day
Anne and I hopped in the car today and took off for Lakeside, AZ to pick up the new addition to our family. Yampa is now a permanent resident at our home here in Flag. She did not take long to make herself at home and start peeing all over but that is to be expected she is a puppy after all. The other day I received a new oxygen sensor for the ol' Pathfinder via UPS that I had ordered from the internet and went to install it only to find out that I did not have a 7/8 inch wrench. I went over to my neighbors house to see if he had one that I could borrow and after searching to no avail he said "what are you doing anyway?" I told him about the sensor and he proceeded to pull out the exact tool I needed for an oxygen sensor. He apparently replaced one on a jeep about ten years ago and just happened to hang onto the tool. Pretty bizare. Not a huge chance of that happening. Today was also the day that open registration started for the Cascade Cream Puff 100 mile mountain bike race in Oregon. I sent my registration in so we'll see if it is accepted. It is supposed to be one of the hardest 100 mile races in the country with over 18,000 feet of climbing. I am going to a wedding the weekend of the Leadville 100 so this one is my second choice but will be fun and painful at the same time if I make it in. That is all for now.
