happy day

last night i drove down to greeley to stay at sarah and joel's.  they took me out to birthday dinner and then we had schwan's peppermint ice cream for dessert.  note: schwan's peppermint ice cream is delicious, even though it's green.  seems like peppermint ice cream should be pink, but no.

then this morning i drove down to golden for my old college roommate's wedding.  i got to meet aaron's fiance (then-girlfriend) last fall when they were on their way to yellowstone.  she seems super great.  the ceremony lasted twenty minutes.  the part i liked best was watching aaron and molly while the officiant dude was talking, because they looked so happy to be there together (and so oblivious to the officiant dude blabbing on).  at the ceremony i ended up next to aaron's aunt and uncle who, turns out, live in laramie.

then i drove along the foothills rather than taking the interstate back up to fort collins, and the drive today was great.  clear, sunny, snow-capped mountains, lots of cyclists out around boulder taking advantage of the day.

and once i got back to laramie, melissa and i headed up to happy jack for some night skiing, my first attempt at skiing in the dark.  it was awesome!  and the trails were empty! and the snow was pretty good!

john lennon said, 'life is what happens when you're busy making other plans.'  today felt like one of those good days when the plans took a backseat to life unfolding in front of me.
