Not a very good pic, but the moon over the city last night was spectacular.

Your photo reminded me that I took a photo last night, too.



^2-25-2024. I refuse to take these lights off my plants until spring shows some promise. I like looking out my office window at night and seeing color.

I saw the moon rising on Saturday. So cool. Too bad I don't plan in advance for a good photo op.

No eagles today, but I did see this colorful duck. Male Common Goldeneye.

Darn…the moon is a deep orange red tonight - even more spectacular than last night! Need a more sophisticated camera for night shots.

Love this photo. Factory photo of a prototype 1941 Indian 4 cylinder.

I rode 20 miles on my ElliptiGO today, taking advantage of the 72* day. It started out lovely but the winds got strong and I was struggling to come back west. Luckily, it let up a bit and didn't die.

One bad thing about winter riding is that the bathrooms in the parks with running water are locked and the water faucets are turned off due to freezing weather. Sometimes they'll put up porta-potties but the one I went in had poop up to the seat and the lock was broken. I didn't take enough water but I did find a decent pit toilet at Devil's Backbone Open Space. I was surprised to find out there's now a $10 fee to park your car there. It was free when I moved to CO and then the fee was $8.50.



^3-2-2024. This area is only 3.5 miles from my house.



^3-2-2024. The Strava map of my ride. I keep track with this phone app. It's free.




^3-2-2024. Wow. March second and 72*?



^3-2-2024. Lake Loveland at 8 miles from home.



^3-2-2024. Lake Loveland



^3-2-2024. Lake Loveland with snow on the mountains. I love to see the snow but I have to go into town for the view because my view is blocked by foothills.



^3-2-2024. Lake Loveland sculpture. Sculptures are a big part of Loveland.
