| HE SHREDS |
Sept 5-8 I went to shred in VT with some friends - rode hard for four days and had a blast.
Came back late on the 8th and then left on the 12th for Utah - my future home...god I love that place!
Miss Lori is a lucky woman to live there.
I went on a bike/camping trip with my friend B - we had a blast - I love camping and sleeping under the stars.
We rode about 30 miles a day on dirt and roads and saw the most beautiful country.
I've never felt such peace and joy as last week when I was totally off the grid and one with nature...
Even more exciting - I was not hungry - not one bit. I had to force myself to eat.
Re-entry is a bitch and I'm doing my best to remain calm and maintain my connection to nature.
Stats - Still 189 - lost 1 pound or so with all the exercise but I think I made muscle - I'm not stressing too bad..
I can't even begin to describe how beautiful it was so here are the pictures.

Ahhh! I am so happy to see this blog post. Isn't it amazing how we can get so distracted by doing something we love that we aren't even hungry?! Why can't that be every day?
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pictures! Looks like an amazing trip!
ReplyDeleteNice photos! I have been to Canyonlands, many years ago, but not Arches. Gorgeous country. Glad you had a great time.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteHi V- I am back with a V-engance! :-)
ReplyDeleteI loved Moab and Arches and those parks when I visited them years ago. AND: I am now biking a lot since I am in the Southwest nowadays. Happy!
Still with you on the plugging away at the weight loss-- have a new doc and a new approach. First things first: total UNfill to rest my band until this coming Monday and then a new way of looking at eating. Le Sigh. Visit my blog when you can… I think I'll be writing more!
