Yampa River Canoeing






In mid June I went canoeing with an organized group on the Yampa River just west of Steamboat Springs. I took my bicycle for an outing the day before and toured the Yampa River Bike Trail in Steamboat. The next day our paddling adventure started. The sun shined half the time and that was glorious and easy going on the fast moving current. Intermittent rain and HAIL added risk and adventure. Two nights of camping, excellent food, "birding" with naturalist and being with fun and happy people.

Santa Fe in May







We had wonderful weather and beautiful sites during a long weekend in Santa Fe. We drove in (in our rental Prius!) on the Turquoise Trail, went gallery and museum shopping, ate our breakfasts on our casa rental outdoor patio in our pjs, drove a while on the gorgeous High Road, and enjoyed the City Different.

Crafty

Amy, Suzy Choo and I ventured to Williamsburg for brunch today and ran into the Renegade craft fair--250 craft vendors selling their goods in McCarren Park! Very dangerous but very fun. We made some purchases (me: t-shirt and purse) and did some crafting!

Make your own stencil sponge paint tote bag!












On my way home, the drawbridge on Hamilton over the Gowanus was up for the first time I've ever seen it. Kind of amazing.



Now home under the fan with Oscar napping at my feet.
