It is great to be in the San Juan Mountains. Sitting by the railroad tracks, or close to the river by the
evergreens.Feeling the cool air and just enjoying the fact that the best thing to do all day is just enjoy
all that is around you. Enjoy indeed. So when you think that you need to renew only lead yourself back
to the path least traveled, sit by that track, that river, and reflect. The way any Boodini would do.

Living Waters
She kept on about the Living Waters, with that childlike voice only she is 50 something. But in the heat of the chase, and you are actually enthralled in the beauty of powerful waterfalls and the rushing Animas River, what can you actually not agree with. It is very soothing and exhilarating all in the same instance.
Boodini doesn't care, it isn't baking like a chocolate chip cookie in Texas, i's running with the Living Water.

Like No Other
When you arrive your high up.And if you look even higher you see Him. So you always go up
and get a close look. Once your there you look down from where you came and that is the town.
Like No Other. Now just being surrounded by very high mountains, and even though your 9300+ ft.
the big ones above and around you are just in the inner circle. Behind them are more and then some more. The last great wilderness in the continental USA! Yes it is a breath stealer, and you live here within the Dream. You are as high as you will ever want to be!

What the Fourth of July Dreams
Yes there was the Cruiser with the machine gun, and Major Dick flew with the ThunderBirds. We cooked
for the Veterans and they in turn carried the load again raising money for kids scholarships from the people
that came in that 4th in that Colorado town and bought our plates of food. Chicago Jack and I set up the buffet, and I cut, cooked and BBQed until they stopped coming in. Gary served in the Nautilus Sub in Vietnam, others in WW2, Korea, and they carried Our Colors proudly in the parade. It was a fine day, made me cry to think how they risked everything to keep us enjoying running, eating, doing what we want
when we want, cause at the end of the day, it isn't about you or me and thunder. It was them, alone against all odds keeping the demons at bay! God Bless all the Vets!

Mountain Cooking...Getter Done
That was the plan and it got done. Those Hardrockers needed their grub and Boodini felt at home
in the Veteran Kitchen in Ole Silverton. Somehow with a few long shifts between breaks at 9300ft.
mountain trails,all came together. Of course this was not the first Rodeo here, but what was different was
the layout and the pack out. Sometimes you have got to Do when you think that you Don't. At the end of the day someone benefited and it was the Run Commitee, Boo is a true Volunteer, always going and not
asking a lot of questions, because at the end of the day you actually got to go...somewhere! Give that a
whirl my friend.
