Good day on Berthoud Pass

Some of these were taken by my newest friend Andrew who may helping TBG with marketing going forward. Grateful for all the support in our first year of company’s brand construction. We are still figuring things out. Like all great endeavors, it is slow going at first, but TBG is here to stay and we hope you will join us so press that book now button and get back to nature…come to mountains and take a walk in the forest with TBG!

“The mountains are calling and I must go” … “The clearest way into the Universe is through a forest wilderness.” … “When one tugs at a single thing in nature, he finds it attached to the rest of the world.” … “In every walk with Nature one receives far more than he seeks.”

-John Muir

We are open for business!

Checked the MODIS satellite fire perimeter imagery and luckily the fire’s downwind and southeast of TBG terrain. Keeping our fingers crossed. Then (if that wasn’t a big enough relief), got this via email:

“I anticipate the District Ranger will send out a formal acceptance of your proposal and application, probably in the middle of August. That being said, I cannot guarantee anything, until you have received your permit in hand. I do anticipate that will occur before winter.”

Happy Birthday, Dad!

Ok, I lied.

I said I was too busy to write this post when I wished you Happy Birthday this morning, but life is too short (as per your favorite rhetorical question “…how long are you dead?”), so I’ll spend a few minutes here on your birthday tribute as promised…

Happy birthday, pops! So glad you’re my dad. Here is to you and the dream of taking back the political process. You have shown us all that it is not only the adventure of a lifetime to tackle the mountains and the rivers, as you did here with minimal trepidation at the ripe age of 70 on a class 4 stretch of the Deschutes river in Oregon…

…but why not also fearlessly venture out to create a whole new way to manage our politicians with your laudable capstone effort, newgov.us?

“Fist in the air! Take the power back from the powerful! Create a movement!” you cry (in your own way, of course).

You will be 80 in less than a decade and even if many youth are too apathetic to take a stand, you step up to the plate.  Or perhaps you just realized that the innocent next generation are not so much asleep as they are lacking in the tools to join the conversation with their elected officials about the many problems that plague them.

“No problem”, you say. “I will build it.” You vow. “They will come.” (Yeah. Sure you aren’t a man of faith;-). “No!” you declare. “We won’t wait idly by until some politician or party or special interest with deep pockets is ready to step up and underwrite it. Then it would cease to be a tool for the people”, you reasoned. “We shall do it ourselves.” Spoken like every great leader in history. How wonderful! How sublime!

Anyway. I gotta get back to work. I am still raising a young family and have to focus on one of my many jobs. But I wanted to at least take the time to say thanks for your mentor-ship, camaraderie and inspiration for all these years. I hope to spend many more years paying tribute to your future contributions to humanity.

Happy Birthday, Sister!

Happiest of birthday wishes to you, sis! You’re awesome. This tribute will be nowhere near long enough as I am headed out the door pretty soon, but between your kayak adventures in Colorado, Costa Rica and on the East Coast’s Green and Galley rivers, your outstanding skills as a licensed massage therapist, inspiring salsa dancing, yoga instruction, your acquisition of multiple degrees in Latin American Studies, Psychology and now a licensed therapist, your life so far has been an testament to what one woman can achieve at a relatively young age. You can be my guide anytime!

Dad, your tribute is up next…
