Chris and I finished our trek.  26 miles(ish) in 3 days.  A truly great hike.  Something I've wanted to do for a long time.

Day in Boulder.  This town is awesome.

Top of Pike's Peak!  I drove it.  I didn't climb it.

I had a long run today and decided to take it easy with a little shopping and browsing in Denver.

Pre-lunch ice cream.  Tonight was Frank Turner night.  His show was killer.

Lots of driving.  More and more driving.  9 hours of driving to Omaha.  Thankfully my friends Andy and Jenny were there to greet me.  I was in Omaha for only 10 minutes before Andy made sure I had a cocktail in my hand.  Now that's an excellent host.

A Danish windmill in Elkhorn, Iowa.  I drove 12 miles out of the way to see this.  The billboards on the highway were too convincing.  My thoughts: I may be headed home, but I'm still on vacation.  Who cares when I get back to Minneapolis?
