Calendar? Isn’t this the planned run thread? Your link points to the planning thread me thinks.

I’ll be bringing along my son and two grandsons.

Seriously, that sounds scary. Hope its nothing bad.

I'm trying to work out time off for saturday, I am a hopeful maybe.

Isaac (my dog) seems normal after that weird incident the other night. He's scheduled to go in to the vet shortly for some blood work and general checkout. Not sure what it was, but it's the second time we've seen something like that happen in the 5+ years we've known him.

Its not clear in the planning thread, is Empire loop rocky/ hard?

Ok bringing wife with no kid. I want to do lunch in Idaho springs or wherever anyone recommends around 1 or 2ish for our 4 year anniversary. So I might need to leave early. We are flexible though.

I'm planning to eat my lunch at Bill Moore Lake. You should have plenty of time to get to Idaho Springs by 1, though you may need to skip the Empire Loop. For what it's worth, I tried to eat lunch in Idaho springs around 3pm last Saturday after the trail cleanup run, and could not park even in the big paid-parking lot. Hopefully it is less busy this weekend for you.

[Paramud]

Thanks for the advice. We will probably do normal trail lunch and drinks/ice cream in idaho if time permits

I am up . Will be leaving Longmont about 7:45am
