Day 0322

I proposed to Katie today after sending her on a long scavenger hunt all over town (to the special locations of our past together). Had some amazing help from some great people, and Luke was the chauffeur at the end. She was very surprised and happy...and I was relieved that it all went smoothly (and that she said yes...). Awesome day.

Day 0223

Mt. Elbert summit jump. That right there is the highest you can be in the state of Colorado (without the aide of any flying contraption). Mt Elbert stands at 14,433 feet above sea level making it the 14th highest peak in the US (2nd if you exclude Alaska...), or the 27th highest point in North America. I'll be reaching this summit again because the view is...amazing. But what else would you expect when you are above everything else?

Day 0216

We climbed four 14ers today all before noon. Here are my jumps from each summit:

Panoramic jump for the final summit, Mt. Bross (14,172). The previous 3 summits can be seen in the background (Democrat about 1/3 in from the left is just poking above the horizon line, Cameron is below my hands, and Lincoln is to the right of my knee).

We were lucky enough to get a glimpse into the amazing world of PIXAR last weekend as we visited their amazing studio in Emeryville. I've never had so much fun with a lamp named Luxo Jr.

Checking out the Annular Solar Eclipse. Didn't have any sun viewing goggles, so we had to just imagine the ring of fire...
