Colorado State Patrol - Durango 2021 Today I was driving up I-70 Westbound. It was about 05:30, and I was driving a van full of cyclists and their bikes to Evergreen, CO. for the Triple Bypass event. It was my first time driving this particular van with the extended bike rack on the back with five bikes and going up the mountain in the early morning hours, with lots of other vehicles going to the same event. I was doing

Up Go the Lights

We were blessed with some nice weather on Saturday, as well as some free time, so the boys and I took a couple of hours to put up the outside Christmas lights. Nothing over the top, but enough to say Merry Christmas to our neighborhood.

The week we taught Miss P to walk on a leash.

Koby Kat) so we needed an idea. People walk dogs an leashes, why cant we walk cats?  Why not lets give it a try.  I popped over to Amazon and found several pages of cat leashes.  YAHOO!   The
