You Can Change and Be happy

Last night I was looking for some old information on one of my external hard drives and came across some pictures I had taken of me when I was up at Mammoth Caves National Park in Kentucky back in 2004 shortly before I moved to Ohio. I looked absolutely huge. I compared it to a picture that was taken this year from hike up to Ozuel Falls in RMNP and I could tell a big difference. Yea I still have a gut and probably will always have that gut till I become worm dirt., but my face and neck was definitely slimmer and I just looked thinner. I think that is good. Now to be trueful, I not a weight watcher or anything in the way of that. But I do have less problems with my knees than I have had in a long time and that is a good thing.

Now do I say I'm satisfied with that. NO WAY and yes I do want to lose more weight, but am I going to be totally unhappy with the way I look right now. Not IOTA.

Now it's time to go get the snowshoes out of the storage place and start to go snowshoeing for a couple of hours after work in the morning up at RMNP on the east side and just go have some fun and get some more exercise that I need.

Till later.....

Holy Cow, The Wind is Blowing Tonight

Coming in to work tonight from Fort Collins, I could feel the truck start to move around a little on the interstate and once I made the turn to the west for the main road that takes me into were I work, you could really feel the brunt force of the wind. Now I remember why I hated to drive in the wind in Wy when I was driving those big rigs cross country. The wind was picking up all the loose gravel/snad off the road and blowing it in to the windshield. You could here it just pelting the windshield and the cab of the truck. Once I got to work and parked, that was a new adventure in getting the door to open. One thing I have learned that is if you leave all the windows up and you have the high winds we are having tonight (wanings out for >80mph gust), you stand a chance of having a shattered window(s) in your car. So just a small crack is all is needed in one of the side windows to let the pressure equalize in the car. Plus it is really warming us up before the big cool down that is going to be coming after the wind.

Well till later....

Hey It's Sunny Outside

It's sunny outside and have no clue to how cold or warm it is. I think I am going to get ready and go out and see though. Thinking about heading up and over Cameron Pass to get to the west side of RMNP and see it anything over there worth shooting. No snow in the forecast for the area today for a little while and the wind has died down so it might be a good day to go adventuring out.

Well time to go.

Till later....

Snow and More Snow

Started snowing again last night and as far as I know it has not stopped. The weather guys say we are going to get snow for today, then stop and then start back up later this week. Every time it starts up and stops, it just makes my commute so lousy. People need to understand how to drive in this stuff. Take it easy, slow down a little, give a little more space, and stay off the dag gum brakes. It might surprise you how much easier your drive would be.

Till later....
