I’m about a third of the way through Leg 24. I’m heading northwest away from Denver, just short of Steamboat Springs, close to Rocky Mountain National Park, where I hiked really, not virtually, for a few days back in 1981.

Last month was right in line with expectations, with steps and distances matching pretty closely to both the month before and a year ago. Only 5 bike rides, versus 8 the month before, but the distance was still respectable. I was out of town twice in one week, and that didn’t help the ride count.

Remember the fox in Onondaga Lake Park? The next time, they brought a friend.
