Prior to last week, I’d been to Arrowhead Lake in Rocky Mountain National Park twice. Here is a link to my post several years ago. The first time I got lost and by the time I got to the lake I had no time to fish. The second time I brought my two sons. We…

Lawn and Crystal Lakes in RMNP
I took a chance to go to Big Crystal in the first week of July. With its elevation and how the lake is tucked against the cliffs, I worried that there would still be a lot of snow. But I wasn’t expecting all the ice. It put a bit of a damper on the fishing…
Producing Gil Audiobook
I’m thrilled to have Ray Kallai narrate the audiobook of Gil: Some Gifts Come with a Price. Hear what he had to say about the book. It’ll be out on Audible any day! Gil Video Or, here is the audio.
Lost Lake and Lake Husted
Last week we did our second hike in RMNP, going to Lost, then Husted. I’m not sure why they call it Lost Lake, it should be Long Lake, not because the lake is long, but the hike is unbearably long. Round trip it was 23 miles. We started hiking at 6:30 am and got back…
The Vintage Club Coming to Audible
Today I finalized the contract with narrator Mark Nelson to turn The Vintage Club into an audio book. It will be sold exclusively through Audible. We’re hoping to have everything finalized and available on Audible by October 2020. I’ve been listening to Audible’s History of Bourbon, and the second chapter has some great medieval stories…
Tour of Rocky Mountain National Park – Fern Lake Trail
With travel options limited, I decided to do a different hike each week in RMNP. This week Tal and I took the Fern Lake trail, heading past Spruce and up to the Divide. As you can see, there is still lots of snow and it was a bit tricky, but well worth it. It’s usually…
Update on Audible Release of Gil
My narrator, Ray Kallai, just finished the recording and it is all submitted to Audible. It sounds like Audible is a bit behind because of everyone working from home, and we are hoping that they can finalize the audio book within the month. In the meantime, we wait and start rolling out our marketing plan.…
Quarantining in La Jolla
We’ve never taken a real road trip, and after two months of sitting around, we decided to tough it out and head across the country. San Diego agreed to open their beaches for walking and surfing, and we couldn’t resist. We make the sixteen hour drive from our home in Denver to La Jolla Shores,…
Gil on Audible
After numerous requests, I finally decided to release Gil on Audible. It is now in production and should be completed within six weeks. As soon as it is finished, Audible should upload the production and then it will be ready for a listen. I’ll keep posting any updates. There are so many parallels with Gil’s…
Eliud Kipchoge’s Two Hour Marathon in Vienna
I was taking a bike tour of Vienna when our tour guide suggested we take a bit of detour. We soon found ourselves riding along a barricaded path. Signs were posted all over, and kilometer markers were set every kilometer. Our guide informed us that Kipchoge was going to try to break the two hour…
