Labor Day '07

Today we climbed part of Long's Peak in the Rocky Mtn. National Forest. We started at about 9,000 feet and hiked up a little shy of 12,000 feet to a place called Chasim Lake. It was 9 miles roundtrip and the most we have hiked in this high of elevation.





After 5 hours of hiking we are now SPENT. Next stop is to do the 14 hour Longs Peak trek....

In case you missed it.....

Teresa and I watched the end of Miss Teen USA 2007 on Friday night....yes Miss Teen Colorado won...but you have to check out the edumication of Miss South Carolina....



we all need more maps and increase education in THE Iraq and South Africa...classic....suchas

Until Next Time

What a weekend. It was so good to be back to Cali to see friends and get some much needed surf time in. We arrived on Wed night and first met up with the Halversons for some din din at Lou's, than we met up with the Kochs for a little G.A.Y. Still good as always...I love the fact that you get to choose what you want to put into your yogurt. The next day was more like one long day from Wed for me since I felt like a Kid trying to sleep on Christmas Eve. I slept maybe one hour and than drove down with Manning to San-O at 5:30 in the morning. We didn't have to pay to get in and the waves were perfect.
We surfed until 1:00pm the only thing stopping me was the fact that my rib cage was bruised so bad I couldn't lay on my board anymore. That night we found out that there are Ultrasound Clinics that you can go to to find out the sex of your baby, it only cost $30 and you get to see your little baby for a while. We found out that we were having a little surfer girl.


So that night we ate at TK Burger....the Best Hamburger Ever. http://www.tkburgers.com/home.html


Friday Teresa had off and we went to the Sugar Shack with Jeff and Brad. The Keplers Special was as good as ever. Afterwards...Teresa and I just relaxed relaxed and relaxed.

That night we celebrated my 30th birthday with a BBQ at the Steph's parent's House.
Koch manned the gril and gave a completed Hamburger display that was fit for Martha Stewart. Teresa did a fantastic Job planning the awesome night. All the right people were there and it couldn't had been better.

Saturday morning we woke and went surfing again with Clay, Manning and even Halvey....yes that is right Halvey went out with us. I wish I brought the camera to document this rare event. We ate at Harbour House afterwards and than drove up to Simi Valley to see Teresa's family. We went to their roadshow that night where Teresa's sister was performing as Snow White.
She did such a fantastic job.

We also got to see Kevin for the first time. He is such a cute baby. We stayed the night and than flew out Sunday afternoon. It was one of the best weekends we have had in a while. I think being away from the beach helped us appreciate it even more. We were sooo spoiled before living so close and we didn't take advantage of it as much as we should have.

it's about time.....

Yo Yo Ma....

Still the greatest show on TV. Beats THE OFFICE any day of the week. Kramer was a genius..

That just happened....

I guess it is time that the Riewerts' jump on the Bloggin' Band Waggon. Like fasion, music and slang we are a little slow to get the latest trends out here in CO. Though we are considered part of the "Western" United States, we are more like the red-headed step child of the "West". Things are going great out here. Teresa is 12 weeks now and we are supper stoked for Feb. 1st and our new arrival. After our experience in Feb we are cautiously optomistic about this one though all signs point for a positive experience this go around. The Kochs visited a couple weeks back and it was awesome to see lil' Charlie and see Nora and Adam as parents....almost inspiring.
We are going to be out in SoCal Aug 8-10 so hopefully we can run into some friends and Harbor House, San-O, TK, G.A.Y., and San-O. It has been almost a year now since we moved to CO and man has time flown by fast....we can't believe that we haven't yet returned to visit. Shame on us.
