Ten things Manager Bud Black might have thought as The Colorado Rockies were pounded 25-1 this weekend by The California Angels.  Management insisted this was the major leagues.  What’s wrong with calling an Uber and coming back tomorrow?  Friends I played with enjoyed 18 holes today and dinner with their families.  Maybe Dante Bichette, Ubaldo Jiminez, […]

One amazing hero

Brunch choices abound

The restaurant business is exceedingly competitive. One restaurant in southeast Denver (Urban Egg) evidently doesn’t believe the above statement. Sally ordered iced coffee today and uttered that famous McEnroe line…‘ you cannot be serious!’, when the bill arrived. The waitress tried to justify this lack of competitive consciousness indicating that $6.99 for a cup of […]

Oooops

I guess going for a quiet walk in the mountains can be an adventure if you choose the wrong mountain.

It was unlike any dream in my first seventy three years of life. The only word that comes close to describe it is ‘luminous’. There were reassuring voices of people in the past…ones no longer here but still somehow remaining in touch. It was clear that they live now in a remarkable place. Delete that…an […]

Easy going

June 17, 2023

Maybe I’ve been living a sheltered life but I always thought taking the dog for a walk involved some exercise…for the dog. Today, I initially thought a fella was taking a toddler for a walk until closer inspection revealed a dog. Oh well…one lucky pooch I guess.

Compassion

“Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some people move our souls to dance. They awaken us to a new understanding with the passing whisper of their wisdom. Some people make the sky more beautiful to gaze upon. They stay for awhile, leave footprints on our hearts, and we are never, ever the […]

Hope

June 10, 2023

I awakened early this morning thinking of a young man and his family…they are living through times that try one’s soul for sure. This is a fella who clings to hope with the faith that better days will define his future and life. Intuition speaks to me saying that great things will come from the […]

A new goat in town

I read today that Nikola Jokic said he could not do 1 push-up in high school. We are watching arguably the best passing big man in the history of basketball. So great is this player that one day when he retires, they’ll rename a ‘triple double’ a ‘JOKIC’. Kudos to the person who delivered this […]

Definitely Uncommon

Yesterday, whilst stalking trout on The South Platte River, a curious thing happened. I was two miles below the hamlet of Deckers and heading from the stream to the car for lunch when something caught my eye in the bushes. At first, it appeared to be an amadou cloth patch that anglers use to dry […]

Great idea

You gotta like the creativity of PGA professionals. After getting slapped in the face by Jay Monahan, they have scheduled their own event to be played in the fall in Washington D.C.. The Benedict Arnold Memorial tournament will honor these professional’s allegiance to the honor and integrity that has been the bedrock of their tour…while taking a […]

Hypocrite Monahan

This is Rose Zhang who was the number 1 amateur golfer in the world before turning professional. Those fans who’ve seen her interviews immediately realize she is a class act…oh, and she won the first professional golf tournament she entered last week. I’ll be rooting for Rose and look forward to watching her dazzling play […]

Aaaahhhh

Most of us, from that all important  sixteenth birthday, have internalized the fallacious thought that…to get anywhere in life, one must constantly have their foot on the accelerator. This pedal to the metal mentality surely drives folks to go after worthwhile goals and is critical for success. A rich and rewarding life rarely just falls […]

Oh, that pesky appetite with eyes that light up at the mention of mud pie and bratwurst on The Fourth of July Oh, that devious voice that resides in our head whispering that the greasy fries are fine and that a pint of ice cream’s ok an hour before bed Oh, that tricky saboteur that […]

Perspective

June 2, 2023

In all of his running to and fro did he ever once sit quietly and count the cost… did the constant motion chasing ambitious goals ever leave time to consider all that he’d lost? In all of his nonstop hecticity did it ever once cross his mind that moments shared with two year olds are […]
