randomdreams mom often relays stories of her crying because RandomDad, in the time before cell phones, was often back late returning from a trip and she figured he was dead in a ditch.skazat left on a 2-3 day bike ride last Monday. Due to weather he's still out there. And back in the day you'd go hunt someone down if they had not returned on time. I don't have to wonder where he is. I know exactly where he is. He has a Spot. A little GPS that sends out his location every 10 minutes. Every few hours it emails me saying, "I'm okay." (I suppose there's also a "come get me" button).
Tomorrow morning he will summit Mt Evans on a bike. Go
skazat!And I'll know when to get the corned bison going in the crock pot.

Oh, he's doing Pikes Peak and Mt. Evans back to back. He's an animal.
They are totally worth it in lowering stress levels alone.

Date: 2012-10-01 02:14 am (UTC)On his first Tour Divide the batteries had died for a few days and I freaked out. He called in saying they were expensive (he was running them for a month) and he didn't feel they were worth replacing. I said, "I will always pay for more spot batteries." He's kept them up ever since.
