Wow! I haven’t blogged in such a long time but I finally feel like my brain has been revitalized! I’m ready to start blogging again…and I have a lot of catching up to do!
So I wanted to start with a small celebration. Instead of fighting the crowds of Black Friday, my husband and I opted to make a run again at the River Mountain Loop trail. You might remember that the first time we tried this it was summer in Las Vegas. We made a not so wise move to try this trail in the middle of the day when the heat peaked out at about 100 degrees Fahrenheit, maybe even hotter in the direct sunlight! I may have slightly over exaggerated a bit in Three Sisters and Dead Grandparents but it was a pretty rough day.
After a pretty quiet Thanksgiving without all of the turkey and dressing, we were delighted to get on our bikes and head towards Boulder City. Initially we were only going to ride to the Railroad Casino but it was such a nice day that we decided to finish the whole loop…or at least try. 
Our Three Sisters RMLT Redux was a success! It was a 37 mile trip with a 2800 foot climb included…that’s definitely the Three Sisters part. While we didn’t suffer from heat exhaustion or hallucinations of our dead relatives, we were really tired when we finally made it home. But what a great ride.
This is one of the many reasons we love Las Vegas. It’s not often that you can enjoy the sunshine and a nice day after Thanksgiving. While others were struggling with the cold front and holiday travel we were so lucky to make that trip and accomplish that goal. It also takes away any guilt from the previous day indulgences!
