I made a quick trip to Lousiville, Colorado, that is. That's a bedroom community for Boulder. I have a court case that is winding down in Denver, and I was there on Thursday and Friday for it. I stayed in Louisville, where I used to live when I was a State Patrolman. (Left: Harper's Lake in Louisville is especially pretty early in the morning.)
The last time I was in Colorado I got quoted by the Boulder paper. My viewpoint is that it's never a good thing to see your name in the paper. I was on damage control when I got quoted. (Right: There's a nice view of the Boulder Flatirons from atop Davidson Mesa. Photo credit P.)
My trip to Colorado gave me a chance to run with my friend P again on Davidson Mesa outside of Boulder. We had a nice hour-long run on Friday morning of six miles in the mile-high air. It's beautiful scenery out there.
(Left: There were still a few Cherry Blossoms left on Saturday at the FDR Memorial.) And then it was back to the real world. I flew into Dulles on a Friday evening flight and got home at 2 am on Saturday morning, in plenty of time to make my 9 am Saturday run of six miles with the 10K Training Group. (Right: Roosevelt Island in the Potomac is especially pretty in the morning.)

Impressive.. scenery, pictures, your mission in Colorado.
Wanted to say .. about your recent coaching: what precious gifts, including your spirit, you give to hopeful runners.
Nice photos! If only it had stayed that pretty looking the rest of the morning ;)
How nice.. that you can travel and run with bloggers. Very nice pictures!
I would have loved to have run with you again. You are correct, thoug, I would not have been available!
Thanks for letting me know about it, though!
my sister is missing blossoms this year, she is in Italy for a year.

How nice to get away to CO if only for a short time. You almost sound like my husband getting in past midnight and then resuming normal activities the next morning. Hopefully you don't do it a couple times a week!
From the mountains to the shining sea - so pretty.
Beautiful photos of CO and DC! State Patrolman, and now attorney, huh? Oh, I so enjoy the tidbits of info you give about yourself in your posts and the links u include.
