Mason on the Sluts and Mutts Camping trip

I went on my third camping trip in Twin Peaks up near Leadville the weekend after Labor Day. I got a free pass to join the Sluts and Mutts annual camping trip this year. This is traditionally a camping trip of just Mommy's girlfriends and their dogs. We camped with sluts Cheryl, Danelle, Tabitha, Kelly, and Jennefer and the eight mutts.

On Saturday Danelle, Tabitha, Mommy, Keaira and Johan (my dogs) and Belgium (Tabitha's dog) and I went for a 3 hour hike outside of Twin Lakes. Mommy's shoulders hurt so Danelle carried me for most of the hike. Thanks Danelle! I loved the free ride!!!

It was cold up at camp at night. Below is a picture of me keeping warm next to Johan for a quick snooze in the tent.

On our way home Danelle, Mommy, and I walked around Leadville. It's a really old town 10,000 feet above sea level. I got a free ride around town and Mommy got some homemade fudge.

Viva Las Vegas - where's the Craps table at Dad?

Well, I am on the move again. Mom and Dad are taking me to Sin City this week for the annual pilgremege to the bike show. I will be out seeking autographs from all the great cycling stars past and present. Maybe even getting my picture taken with some pretty girls while I am there.

We leave on Wednesday morning and come back on Friday night. We are staying at the Venetian, which is also where the bike show is. I will be hanging out with Mom by the pool and with Dad at the show and then hitting town with Uncle Brian and Uncle Dash. Maybe we can even get into Ghost Bar at the Palms and see Brittany dance and lip sync? I will be updating the site with pics and stories every day that we are there so check back often.

Stuff that I have done this summer

While I wait for mom to give me the write up for the camping trip, I thought I would highlight everything that I have done this summer. First, we bought a summer pass to the zoo. Mom likes seeing the gorillas and dad likes the elephants. Here is a pic of all of us out in front of the zoo.

Here I am with my friend Gavin. I am two months older than him but he is bigger than I am. This is at the City Park Jazz Festival. It is also really close to the zoo. We only went a couple of time this year though.

Then we went to a bunch of sporting events this year. The first was a Colorado Rockies game. We had really good seats, about 20 rows behind home plate in the lower bowl. We won that game 5-3 against the San Diego Padres. The pitcher struck out 7 batters so we got free drinks from Circle K that next day.

We then were off to the pitch to see the Colorado Rapids play a couple of "football" games. The first game was against New York RedBull and we lost 1-0. The next game was much more fun. It was the SuperLiga match between 2 Mexican First Division teams, Pachuca and CD Guadalajara. Chivas, which is what Guadalajara's nicknames, is one of dad's favorite teams. We have matching jerseys and I really want to have one of these cool masks from the guy sitting behind us. Do they make these in my size?

Then at the end of July, we went to the Dragon Boat races over by Sloans Lake. They were kinda cool and the food was really good. Mom got me this really cool hat that I can were when I am out in the yard with everyone.

We have also gone swimming abunch of times. I have been in the Pacific ocean twice, swam at the Red Rocks Casino and Resort in Las Vegas, the Mt. Princeton Hot Springs in the Collegiate Peaks and over at Cynthia's pool.

First post for the world to see

Hello everyone. Here is the first post of my new blog page. Since I am always on the go with mom and dad, I thought it would be a good idea that everyone knew where I have been.

So last week was my third trip to CA, this year. My first one was back in March to meet the family. The second one was to see great grandpa since his health was not doing very well. And this last one was more for mommy than me. Her friend Kirsten was having a reception for thier wedding. This time we flew to San Jose and drove up to Sacramento. We camped out one night and then went to Petaluma and stayed with some other friends of mommies.

Monday we drove down to San Francisco and watched the harbor seals make noise.

Mom then found Mason street and took my picture under the sign. Who knew that they have already named a street after me?

This weekend I am going on the girls camping trip with mommy and the dogs. It is called the sluts, mutts and baby butts (that is for me) trip. We are going to camp for a couple of nights in the Twin Peaks area, which is just south of Leadville.

Dad is staying at home again this weekend. He has alot of yard work to do for the end of summer BBQ and has cross practice again before the race season starts. His first race is next Saturday down in Colorado Springs and then Sunday in Littleton. I will go and cheer him on for the Sunday race.
