Biking the Boulder Creek and Canyon

I decided to go exploring by bicycle one day, so I rode up and down the Boulder Creek Pathway. Starting by going up into Boulder Canyon and ending by heading out east toward the reservoir, I biked something like 15 miles. Anyway, here are some of the pictures.

A small, unnamed park-type area near Broadway & Canyon (it's a good place to relax and talk on the cell phone):



A lone, yellow flower out east on the creek path:




















Some black-tailed prairie dogs also out east:

The Domus

Well, really just the backyard from when Dragos, Zeb, Kristin, and I ignited my flame pit and charred some mammal (and salmon) flesh. I'll get some pictures of the house proper eventually.

The First Days

Blogger is being painfully slow today, so my picture uploads are not progressing as I would hope. In any case, I'm breaking the pictures down into groups (with captions) that will each go in a separate post. [All of the photographs have been 'stamped' with a copyright. I'm not sure I'll do this in the future, but we'll see how it goes for now.] These three are from near the time I first arrived in Boulder, say the 11th to the 13th of August.

These trees are everywhere and attached are these odd little 'pods':

In principio...

Iaswn creavit hunc 'blog'. I write this when I should be lying down to bed myself, but these confounded machines often hold me past any sense. Prepare yourself for a slew of pictures that I have taken in the past few weeks, ranging from shortly after arriving at Dagron's abode to various wanderings within the city limits.
