Dash woke up with vacation on his mind.  Sweet shades dude.  SLC here we come, then Tahoe, then Santa Barbara.  Yahoo.  The blog will be taking a vaca too.  Dash promises to be bigger when he makes his next cameo!

So long...

 Setting off tomorrow on a road trip to see fam, soak up some warm sun, surf, ride bikes, and introduce Dash to lifelong friends.  A couple more shots from last weekends moto ride.  

 And a Dash work diversion!  

The bench trail never gets old.  Pay attention, or it is a long tomahawk fall to the bottom.

Its been a while.....

 Since the motorsports band was all together.  Drewski and Scuba have been powering on in my absence, but Saturday I joined them for a fast and furious sweet evening rip over on the bench trail in the Swan Valley, ID.  

Umm, such an amazingly dorky photo.  

Riding this trail never gets old.  Plus, in the spring its so green, lush, and the dirt is as good as it gets when everything else is too wet to ride.

Wonder Woman....

 Today is all about you Chels.  It so hard to believe where we were at last year at this time and where we are now!  You are the most amazing mom.  Dash and I love you with our big and  lil hearts.

Monthly Wanderings in Big Wonderful 307

My monthly road trips for work vary depending on where kids I work with are placed.  Right now, I am going out to Torrington (Five miles from the Nebraska border), back to Casper, up to Worland, and back to Jackson.  It is a lot to digest in two days of traveling, but it's easily one of my favorites parts of my job.  A few days ago going over Togwotee it looked more like January rather than middle of May!  
 
After wrapping up work for the day and seeing a good break in the action with the rain, I jumped on my bike and went for a 60 miles spin to see what I could find.  I found the Ayers Natural Bridge.  This is between Douglas and Casper, WY.  
 
 Pretty sweet lil place to have a sip of water and an energy bar.  

 And further explored some awesome county roads that went all the way into the Medicine Bow mountains via a bunch of really pretty ranch land.  

 Then, the next day, I tackled Casper Mountain.  Its a sweet climb out of the city (by Wyoming standards!) up Casper Mountain to Hogadon Ski Area.  It was a beast!  And it snowed the night before and was a wickedly cold decent back into town.  

More backroads of WY.

It's Cool.

When the future is just so damn bright, one must wear the proper eye protection!

Bluebird....

 The annual Mountain Bluebird group ride went out last Saturday.  The weather was summer like.  I got my first sunburn of the season and it felt good to go almost 80 miles with a hard charging group.  
Top of Signal Mountain.  Turn around point.  

Probably the best descent in the valley.

Yea boy....

 The sun sure is bright these days!  Dash and Chels have been walking to my office most nice days this spring to spend lunch with me.  It's easily the best part of my day!  

New leggings.  Clearly digging them!

The Dudes....

 Stevie and Dash are fast becoming good buds.  Stevie loves Dash's changing pad.  

Dash in a nutshell.  Always ready for an adventure and smiling.  I am always so pumped to be done with work at the end of the day so I can hurry home to load up this nugget of awesomeness and go get some fresh air!

You know it.

 Dash, never one to let the grass grow under his feet, went on his first hike the other day to welcome in the opening of the trails behind our apartment that we are so lucky to have literally out our back doorstep.  May 1 the seasonal wildlife closure ends and the trails open back up.  It was a super nice day and Dash motivated to see what the view was like from above town.  

Dash and I could barely keep up with Chels.

Another first....

 Dash had his first play date the other day hanging with some buds kids of Chels'.  Evidently all had fun, although it looks like Dash was sleeping through most of it!  

Nevermind, up and awake.

Dash Does...

 a lot of awesome things, but perhaps out two favorites might be..., sleep, and....

 SMILE.  He simply smiles a ton!  Love it.
