This past Saturday, my Dad and I drove down to Sapinero (Blue Mesa Reservoir) and back to pick up my 4runner from my friends at Proffitt’s Resurrection Land Cruisers. There located in Orchard City, CO, just outside Delta. To make things easier, lately I’ve been meeting Jeremiah (owner and longtime friend) at there place above Sapinero, CO. Dad joined me again for the trek down and back. It was a most enjoyable day. The light through South Park, as with the last few trips, was wonderful. Monarch Pass is always a beautiful drive. I was excited to get the 4runner back, as the crew at Proffitt’s installed a dual ARB air compressor. Something I’ve always wanted. I’ll do a write up on the install later.

I’ve been working on a logo design, with help from my Dad over the past few months. After finally getting a design we liked, I ordered stickers. They showed up this week and I’m pretty excited how they turned out. Just in time for the annual Spring fling in Moab, UT (Cruise Moab). The few nice days of weather that Denver has had has me excited to get out to the desert and hide away for a few days!

Great light while driving through South Park this past Saturday.

Somehow, I made it to work this past Sunday. Always happy when the trains and shuttle buses are running on time. Sunday was when the blizzard of 2021 set in. I was the only production member to make it to work (three drivers kept me busy) that day. My manager Brad gave me a ride home after we shut things down early. Pena BLVRD had to be the worst I’ve ever seen it.

27+” at DIA.

Downtown: A good 12″.

Went for a walk around my apartment after getting home. Downtown can be so peaceful during these storms.

Have watched people take pics of these stairs ever since I’ve been downtown.

One of the benefits of being at work out at the airport (Denver International) by 5am is that I get to enjoy the sunrise while I’m working away. Definitely some good ones this past week, before the big winter storm set in. The few nice days we had has me itching to get out to the desert, though I still have some work to check off the to do list on the runner before hand ( truck is currently getting a dual ARB Compressor installed).

Knowing I’d be driving down to Sapinero (and back) on Saturday, I headed up to the cabin this past Friday for a night. Felt good to get up there since it’s been a few weeks. The weather was perfect and a nice clear night to enjoy the Winter Moon. Originally planned to get a few pics of the runner with the new awning set up, but it was just to windy when I tried. So instead, just enjoyed the afternoon up at the property. Later that evening a friend from the club joined me for a few hours. A most relaxing night:).

Making fresh tracks to the pond and the Upper Meadows. I was enjoying it.

• 

Some great afternoon light at the pond. Rosedale and the Mt. Evans Wilderness in the distance.

Some fine light on Evans the next morning. From here, it was a fun drive to my friends place in Sapinero ( and Back).
