On the Road Again!

While the pandemic is far from over, I am going to put this “trip” on hiatus for a while.

Why? We’re heading off on a road trip ... one that will have its own “trip” here on FindPenguins.

If you care to follow along ... here’s the link!

Lunch with the Gelmans
29 April 2021, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☀️ 61 °F
We combined a shopping trip to Centennial today with lunch with our friends Sonia & Boris.

We’re all fully-vaccinated and according to the CDC guidelines can now get together mask-free in an outdoor environment. Of course, we would have had to be mask-free to eat anyway!

Mui requested a table on the patio at PF Chang’s in Lone Tree, one of our favorite eateries. Luckily it was indeed warm enough to sit outdoors. Good food ... good weather ... excellent company with lots of good cheer.

We were having such a good time that we forgot to take a photo of the four of us ... so, these will have to do.Baca selengkapnya

My Rainbow: On TV

We might not make it onto TV ourselves ... but Sam Schreier, our local weather guru featured my 🌈 photo on the morning news show.

(Sorry, the volume is so low.)

Colorful sunrise views from our deck are not uncommon.

But this morning's sunrise was particularly colorful ... and moody. All thanks to a storm that was brewing on the plains.

Fully Vaccinated!
18 April 2021, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☀️ 43 °F
As of this morning, I am two weeks past the second dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine and have joined Mui and the millions of others who are considered fully vaccinated in the fight against the Coronavirus.

Of course, we will continue to mask up indoors and follow the public health recommendations.

We were going to celebrate with Sonia & Boris, but with snow in the forecast for tomorrow into Tuesday, we've had to postpone those plans. We'll try again later!Baca selengkapnya

Birthday Celebration
11 April 2021, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☀️ 64 °F
We don't do birthday gifts, but we do go out for a meal to celebrate on special occasions.

For my birthday today, we opted to go out for lunch, mostly because it tends to be too chilly in the evenings.

My choice was Edelweiss, a family-owned German restaurant on the south side of Colorado Springs. The forecast was for a nice day, so we reserved a patio table. It was, in fact, a warm enough day that we didn't have to ask for the heater at our table to be turned on.

Mui and I both had schnitzel ... he ordered the traditional Wienerschnitzel made with veal; I ordered the Ramschnitzel, which was made with pork and served with a mushroom sauce and a side of spaetzle. The schnitzels were perfectly cooked ... not even a tiny bit greasy.

Since Mui had mentioned that it was my birthday, dessert was on the house ... the waiter's choice ... a yellow cake with a mocha mousse frosting. It was OK. But no matter ... Mui had a mini chocolate mousse "bomb" waiting for me at home.Baca selengkapnya

Pelancong Looks like a perfect birthday. Haven't had good schnitzel since I was in Vienna! Sent you a card on Tuesday....hope it made it in time. I was thinking of you. Hard to forget your day since it is the same day as my grandson Axel. Just a few years different. Dang that pork dinner looks truly yummy. That would have been my choice as well.

Two to Travel Haven’t received the card yet ... will make sure to go down to the mailbox tomorrow. If it is one of your creations, I have something to look forward to. Happy birthday to Axel.

Celebrating in Monument
3 April 2021, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☀️ 66 °F
After I got my second jab of the COVID-19 vaccine this morning, we went off to enjoy the delightful spring day ... mid-70F ... blue skies ... sunshine ... a light breeze. Our destination? Monument ... just a short ways north of Colorado Springs.

First ... lunch on the patio @ La Casa Fiesta ... delicious Mexican food ... mixed fajitas for me; carnitas for Mui.

Next ... dessert @ Lolley's, a creamery we heard about on the local news (they do a daily "Rebound Colorado" segment to promote local businesses during the pandemic). As promised, the ice cream — especially the caramel pecan — was "scrumpdillylolleylicious." Yes, I know, that's not a real word. But it fits.

A quick stop to check out Monument Lake wrapped up our visit.

All in all, a short but delightful outing on a lovely spring day.Baca selengkapnya

Pelancong oooooh that ice cream looks scrump......and outdoor dining under blue skies, fantastic

Two to Travel Yes ... it was a great outing. It was lovely enough to sit on the deck this morning, but now the wind has picked up and the clouds have moved in. No matter ... it's not like I don't have plenty to do at my desk planning for AK. (Finished re-reading your blog for the AK days ... took notes on some of your boondocking/dry camping info.

Got My Second Jab!
3 April 2021, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☀️ 66 °F
I received the second dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine this morning. Yay!

Feeling good so far. That said, Mui's side effects — a general listlessness and achiness — did not hit until the day after he got his shot. I'm prepared for whatever might come my way ... no plans scheduled for the next few days.Baca selengkapnya

Pelancong glad you could enjoy tge day before any pesky side effects set in. congrats on being fully vaxed!! ours on the 8th
04/04/21Balas
Two to Travel No side effects except for a slightly sore spot where I got the shot. I asked the nurse giving me the shot about why some get side effects and others don't. No one really knows. She said the rumor that people with good immunity or those younger in age having the worst reactions is fallacy.
04/04/21Balas
Pelancong All I had was a truly sore arm ... I could barely lift my arm the next day. Much of the soreness wore off the next day and by day three, my arm was all right. So ... we did it!

Two to Travel Mine didn’t ache even that much. I’m thankful for that.

Another March Snowstorm

Someone told me recently that March is the snowiest month in Colorado. I believe it.

This snow event lasted just one day ... started around noon yesterday and ended around noon today. By the time it was all said and done, we had about 8” of accumulation.Baca selengkapnya
