As you can see, Cruiser Night brings out some of the more strange people in Boulder.  

*very* strange. 

Mass of bikers big and small.  

Breakfast stop at Lucile's, one of the more famous restaurants in Boulder. The buttermilk biscuits are ginormous, delicious, and definitely NOT fat free. 

Let's just say Dallice and Osman had no qualms with a little "P.D.A." 

Downtown Boulder has lots of interesting things to see. Here's one of the plates from Boulder's newspaper, 'The Daily Camera' that's embedded into the sidewalk. 

Enjoying the sunny weather in Boulder 

On the 2nd day, the weather was "perfect" for tubing down Boulder Creek, which runs right through the city. The water forms primarily from snowmelt, so needless to say it was frigid. I planned to stay on top of the tube and keep relatively dry, which of course resulted in my falling flat into the water within moments of entering the stream. 

Approaching certain death... 

It's a lot scarier when you're actually in the tube. Initially I was too embarassed to put this pic up, then I realized I wasn't making the funnier expression.  

Eventually we got the hang of it. T took this great shot of us tubing down the creek. 

I was too scared to ask what those ladies were selling. 

At the Farmer's Market 

While Boulder has many interesting cultural attractions for the would-be vacationer to see, T and I were quick to notice a paucity of representatives from the Dark Continent. Guess how many Tahera found at the Farmer's Market? 

This t-shirt was the subject of much confusion for many of the passers-by at the Boulder Farmer's Market. Truth be told, there was an occasion where my father and I were befuddled by the message, "WWJD" on laniards for sale in Wal-Mart, so I guess if you didn't recognize Krishna, you'd be just as confused. 

Tahera and I were excited to see a fellow pika commemorated on the trail. While the resemblance isn't apparent, I look just like that when I'm eating salad. 

Elk. 'Nuff said. 

The ride back from the national park took pretty much all day. Here we see Marley with Osman taking a break while Dallice drove. 

Final shot as we left Denver yesterday.  

Can you see me now?

What on Earth is Pika doing? Why, she's seeing a "Magic Eye" (a.k.a. autostereogram) picture in 3-D for the first time! After trying for years without success, Tahera finally discovered a method that worked for her. Imagine her glee at finally being able to see them...
