We'll see how this goes. But I have decided in the shadows of the eve of turning fifty.....that the following 365 days (and beyond) will be as usual, chock full of adventure. At least one per month, even if its only a day long one. They should all contain some physical challenge or something that the mainstream doesn't get to regularly do. like hitting the Black Rock Desert and Black Rock City again. Mountain Biking the Monarch Crest Trail. Moab biking and Slick Rock. Jeeping world class trails.....and back pack trips.
Mainly a statement that 50....."ain't nuttin but a thing...." Keep living to the max! Follow some of the mantra's that have surrounded me the past years:
*** The difference between a rut and a grave......is the depth of the hole.
***You can fall off a cliff and Die
You can get attacked by fire ants and Die
You can swim in the ocean and Die
You can flip your jeep and Die
You can get lost in the desert and Die
You can get swept away in an avalanch and Die
You can get mauled by a mountain lion and Die
OR
You can stay at home, sit on your couch, eat potato chips.....and DIE.
**** Get Out There!! As "Yellow House Jon" would say.....
"DIE LIVING !! "
See you all on the trail...the lake...the 14er...the forest...the canyon...the desert...the mountain!
