Seek The Substantial

I am trying to get back on track with this thing. I don’t know what I will, but let’s try.

1. I am very guilty of pouring and not drinking with some things in my life. Gotta start drinking.

2. I keep writing about how great Dirt is and if you don’t write all of these places down to go visit, I don’t know that I’ll do anything, but you should. You get to know the places and it makes me want to eat.

Okay, it’s Aspen, Carbondale, Paonia, Hooper, and Denver.

3. I finished The Gentleman on Netflix and it was terrific. Guy Ritchie at his best and the acting was superb. Not only that, but the costumes, yes, I noticed how they dressed, and it was so British and fantastic. Go watch The Gentleman, season 2 is on it’s way.

4. The boys take their lunches every day and I’m the dad that started writing them messages on their lunch sacks each day. I have no idea if they even notice, but I do it regardless. I have my go-to sayings and they are usually intended to just be encouraging. Nothing special; however, every Friday I always write, “Be Kind. Always.”

5. I ran a 50k with my brother (it was great) and it was more difficult than it needed to be. I think I’ve already mentioned previously that I hurt my back, lost so much strength and muscle in my left leg that my leg would buckle because of the weakness. I am quite proud that I was able to figure out how to run 30 miles, going from not being able to walk upright to being able to walk across a finish line. That’s a very long story short, but I would like to emphasize and implore you to do hard and difficult things.
