New Bike

My birthday is tomorrow. It's been my custom to be out-of-town on my birthday whenever possible. My job situations (yes, plural) conspired against me this year and prevented that from happening this year. Recently I acquired a new bike (very similar to the picture below; a Civia Bryant)

McKinley 2011

Here's the video that Wes put together of our May, 2011 McKinley (West Buttress) trip. Enjoy. http://curtisjones.us/excursions/20110505-MtMcKinley/wes.m4v

In-door Rowing

I "treated" myself to an in-door rower which arrived one week ago. I love numbers. And collections of numbers. And adding to collections of numbers. I've spent more time staring at my rowing spreadsheet on my iPad this past week than I'll ever admit

Winter is Coming

Spot Programmer Failure

So, the Spot Messenger iOS app on my iPad was acting up a bit. Not sure what else to try, I hit the "logout" button, thinking that would let me "start from scratch". When I hit "login", the app informed me that, "you

Mt. McKinley (2011) - Day 23

Talkeetna to Anchorage 07:00 - When the alarm starts blaring it's difficult to choose breakfast over another hour of sleep, but we do; a Standard Half breakfast with orange juice. Wes just gets a giant pastry of some sort. There's a trio of people sitting
