Mark and Carl are training for the Triple Bypass Ride in July. Yesterday we did a 60 mile ride around Denver going south through Cherry Creek Reservoir, south on Jordan Road, connecting with C470 to Chatfield Reservoir, down the Platte River to the confluence with Cherry Creek, then up Cherry Creek back home. It was great. There are lilacs blooming all over town and the Western Chorus Frogs are mating. We even see Irises and Poppies which are very early this year. The trail goes through many prairie dog towns along the way. Today we road down Cherry Creek to the Platt River then north to Clear Creek to Golden, Colorado. This was a 70 mile ride. The weather was beautiful. We saw a wild turkey in one field along the Platte River. This is the first wild turkey I have seen in Colorado. On our way back from Golden we rode through about 50 young guys on skate boards. They were quite good and fun to watch. Getting home we chowed down a quick late lunch and went to see the Yves St. Laurent exhibit at the Denver Art Museum. It was beautiful. Such a talented man with a expansive vision of women. Mark is looking for a banana flower soup recipe while we are sitting on the south patio having a Goulden Carolus beer. The vegetable garden is nearby and growing beautiful leafy veggies. Turnips, beets, spinach, radishes, mache, onions, pak choy, and green and red lettuce. Yum.
