2010.



Well, it's now 2010. I'm watching the Olympics and I'm super stoked for the good ol' USofA. Funny to see people from all of my favorite places competing in the Winter Games (Tahoe City, Truckee, Breck, Vermont, YEAH!)

A brief update on my situation (no not the guy from the Jersey Shore). I;m getting my masters at CU, this will be a reality come December o-ten, and I'm super psyched to get that over with. Right now I'm taking one class, Mechatronics and Robotics, in which we design robots to compete against each other. In our case the class voted to make robots to play mario kart against each other. The robots need to be able to act on their own and make decisions because we program them and let them go. I am learning a ton, and looking forward to where this project takes me. I've been told it's the best ME class offered at CU.

On that note, I've decided to take only one class this semester to settle down and be able to have some semblance of a life this semester, as well as having to wait until the fall to get my last required class (an organizational snafu due to switching my major halfway through my masters)

Yesterday I grabbed the road bike down and cleaned all the bird poo off it (don't ask). Today I took the old lady for a 45 minute spin around the living room, actually, in one place in my living room, but come on, it's cold out there!! I think she's been on maybe two ride since her momentous journey around Lake Placid.

Here are some pics from some adventures we've been on in the last few months:

Here is our camp site in Colorado National Monument, cold but fun!!
