last night the girls went up to meegan's parents house up on sawmill road (between ward and nederland). it was a 30 minute drive from boulder, and i have only ridden my bike up there, so it was strange to drive. you can see the continental divide looking west (with a small hike) and kansas looking east. it is pretty awesome.

on the way we spotted this bear on lee hill drive. i have only seen a bear one other time in my life. this guy was really little and drooling. i guess that is better than really big and drooling.

meegan's graduating class. go ned high school!

her parents live "off of the grid" and even have their own solar panels and windmill.

here is the the cpu of the house.

when the power gets low meegan has to hop on the bike to run the electricity. (not really, this is just the homemade bike stand that they have in the garage. it is really a good idea, and way cheaper than the park tool stands.)
