trip went well yesterday though the first mountain pass was black ice and crashes everywhere. must have surprised the DOT too but it was the only spot there was a problem. we met up and picked up our friends dog in Missoula and continued on without missing a beat.. 11.5 hours of pure joy! he's a very nice dog ( puppy) we know and slept in his kennel the whole time except a brief pee stop for all parties. our friends are very very attached to their dog so I know it made them nervous even though they know us very well. they were so happy to be reunited without the drudge of a long long drive to get him.

Late start this morning so I just did Restorative Yoga as I wasn't sure how much time packing would take today.
Valerie the two things absolutely do not go together in my mind. Trip went well and black ice/crashes. LOL That's great that your time with the dog went smoothly.

Cathy it went well because we were NOT the first people driving up Homestake pass! the wrecks already happened. lots of flashing red and blue lights and MSP vehicles. everyone instantly slowed down and all went ok. the problems were downhill side of the pass with a semi jackknifed and a few lesser issues. that was the only spot in the drive with issues. just a few miles were nasty. temps were above freezing but not by much. we put on snow tires for this trip because weve had trouble in october before. have a good trip yourself. drive carefully.

Yesterday I did CDorner Old School Cardio 30 minutes, 196 calories, heart rate 135/157. I also did some chair yoga and PT moves for 33 minutes, 71 calories. Today was a rest day and family barbecue. We are going to have another great grandbaby, so now one is coming around the end of December and the other May. That will be 3!! I think I feel old.
Carolyn, nice work on the yoga mobility this morning.
Valerie, black ice and mountain driving does not sound pleasant to me. That was kind of you to pick up your friend's dog for them. I am sure they really appreciated it.
Cathy, good job on getting in restorative yoga this morning. I hope your trip goes well.
