Angle Fire, New Mexico - 2nd Race in the Series

These are amazing mountains are called the Palisades. Huge granite vertical stacks like you have never seen before. Gorgeous.

A look from 10,677 ft down to the base around 8,600. Jeff had to climb from the base to the peak and then fly back down.


There are amazing turnouts in the races out here. Very different than back east.


Here is Jeff climbing to the finish line.... climbing because it was straight back up hill. Wild!


GO JEFF GO! 3rd Place in his 40+ class....

The rest of the riders were not present since it took almost 4 hours to post the results. Results usually are posted 1 hour after a race; they had serious technical problems obviously.

Derek's Birthday Party

Bevan in the kitchen getting the place ready for the party.

Everyone handng out in the living room. (well, you can't see all the other people sitting and standing around.)


Derek's best friend Michael (did the Aids ride with in Cali) with his partner Brian.



Cammie, Derek and Jeff hanging out and acting a-fool. Laughter is good for the soul. (once again, Cammie has forgotten to put on her face paint and is all natural - not good for photos)

Guymon, OK Trip for Grandmother's Funeral

What a great time...
even though we were all gathered for a very sad event...
the loss of Sue's mother.

I must say, for a small time, this town has some charm... and drama! We were entertained from the moment we arrived until we drove out of the driveway. Man, some of the stories we were told... hysterical. Below are some photo's of Jeff's mother's siblings and their children.
Sue (Jeff's mom), Jim (Jeff's dad), Uncle Bill (Sue's brother) and Jeff in Aunt Judy's kitchen.



Let's see here, going from the left of this photo to the right we have, Kim (Jim's wife), John (behind Kim - Sue's brother), Jim, Bill, Judy, Amy (Judy's daughter - leaning over), and Savannah (John's wife).

11th Anniversary

We had a calm, peaceful evening. We went to Blue Star on S. Tejon. Reminded us of something back East - we LOVED it! We popped our heads into the brewery next door and picked up a 1/2 Gallon of beer that we were sipping on through dinner. It was a great night... I received the earrings in my ears in the photo below.
Jeff just chilling on the sofa before bed! Always looks GQ!
