I’m about to write a blog entry about a card game. Yes seriously. This either means I have completely lost it or I’m writing about the best card game ever. My vote is the latter, and hopefully you agree too! Lately my life has seriously been benefitting from a lot of cabin time in Grand … Continue reading »

Why I believe in second chances
If you asked me my opinion on Copper Mountain at this time last week I would have said, “Eh it’s not that great.” If you asked me my opinion on Copper Mountain today I would say, “Holy cow it’s an awesome mountain, and I might switch passes next year!” What changed my mind? Well you … Continue reading »
I’ve seen it rain fire in the sky
You know what has been rocking my world lately? Many things but especially the Colorado sky. Seriously. Between the crazy hail and thunderstorms and fire in Fort Collins, the sunsets have just been out of control lately. At my Denver Summer Ultimate Frisbee League game last week, I was absolutely mesmerized by the sky. When … Continue reading »
Grounded
I was grounded this past weekend. You might be asking yourself from what was I grounded? I mean I’m almost 25. Was I sneaking out past my non-existent curfew? Not exactly. You see, I wasn’t grounded for doing anything wrong per se, rather I was grounded from doing too many activities. I’m perhaps a little … Continue reading »

This post is currently coming to you from a train leaving Washington, DC heading towards Charlottesville, Virginia. Yes, the train has Wi-Fi, and it’s totally the greatest … Continue reading »

Six months ago I thought for sure I was going to run a marathon today. I have been registered for the Colorado Marathon since last November, and I started training in January. I mean I went through a workout where I actually did 3 x 5 mile repeats. My second marathon legitimately should have been … Continue reading »
“We are a state of crazy people.”
I know the ski season is basically over for me because this past weekend I actually chose hiking over skiing. My friend Kate and I had originally planned on skiing at Keystone on Sunday, but we had both skied the day before and were unexcited about the prospect of skiing on icy, melting snow again. … Continue reading »
A picture is worth 1,000 words
Hello! I hope you all had a lovely weekend. Brunch with the ladies of New Denver Church. So delicious. Trail run fail. Way too windy. Like I was getting knocked off the trail windy. Plan B: run down the High Line Canal into an amazing sunset. Win. “Yeah, let’s not stay out too late, … Continue reading »
Jump jump!
I’ve skied, mountain biked, rock climbed, and rafted my way through Colorado. But there’s one extreme sport that until this weekend I had not conquered: trampoline jumping. Yes, that’s right, trampoline jumping is an extreme sport. Or at least that’s what the sign at Jump Street informed me. I knew there was a reason I … Continue reading »
