Badge of Honor

Jeep has a "Badge of Honor" app that allows you to earn badges by running select trails across the nation. It has maps, information, highlights, difficulty ratings and user photos of the trails so you know what to expect before you head out. Over the last year or so, I collected badges in Colorado and Utah but just recently got around to mounting them on my Jeep...

It's a fun way to explore some of the best trails in the country

Life Is Good

I had a lunch with Terry & Gail (my favorite Alpine, UT couple) at Joe's Real BBQ in Gilbert, AZ. Gilbert is a quintessential yuppie town in that they converted a lot of the old buildings into unique restaurants and shops. After lunch we went for a walk and got our first hint that Gail wanted some ice cream...

So, we turned on the siren and flashing lights and headed to the nearest yogurt shop...

After a couple weeks of cool weather, we are back in the 70s with blue, cloudless skies that makes for great days to be outside.
