Lately I’ve been doing the usual, hiking and dating. I went on a solo 5.5 mile hike last week. It was a little tougher than I expected, some scrambling over boulders. This is the calm part…

I went with a group on a 5.5 mile hike that had beautiful red sumac on display.

To finish out the week, I met a man for a 3.5 mile hike around Bear Creek Lake. He’s a nice guy, so we’ll get together again.

I had a first date early last week and then a second date with the same man this past weekend. So far, I like him. We went to the Deep Roots Winery in Golden. He’s a photographer, so I suggested that we use our phones and take photos and then compare. We liked mine better. He’s not used to using a phone to take photos. The charcuterie board and the wine were yummy.

This week I have a couple of hikes on my calendar. Have a great week!
