Happy 4th, all! Photo from this morning’s Buddy’s 5k Road Race in Aspen that came by Gary & Bobbi’s place about 8am this morning. This runner was passing by a conveniently-hung American flag. How very patriotic! Everyone, be safe and enjoy the day!

Yes, we’ve made it to Colorado. I stopped the car along the very narrow portion of Colorado 82 to grab this image – where the highway drops to a single lane at points, with no signs or other warnings – where we saw this very dense stand of Aspens. The pass was an amazing drive – including the oh-so-frightening lack of guardrails on some of the 10k+ foot switchbacks, although I could have done without the altitude sickness both Sam and I experienced. Talk about wooozy! Photo gallery is here. 

Go fast, turn left

Launching

Pictured above are the crack team of staff from our Turner Digital Media Tech and Turner Sports Interactive teams as we relaunch the ad systems on Nascar.com today. I played a key role, bringing two dozen hot donuts (from Krispy Kreme, of course) and a humongous box of coffee. The launch went swimmingly, of course – this is a great team to work with!

Cruising

standing and proud
Noah hit a big milestone about a week ago – pretty much overnight, he figured out how to pull himself up on his crib, which led to tracking down the hex wrench to drop the mattress down. He’s so pleased with himself as you can see here, vocalizing happily whenever he gets vertical.
