Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

New job primary offices are here in Austin and Santa Clara; Fort Collins is a satellite. She's actually a touch concerned about moving there and having a harder time advancing without the face time of being at the primary office, but most of the time she insists she doesn't want to keep climbing. A problem for later this year.

The good part is simple mouse traps with peanut butter work really well.

Maybe for the hick mice up in your area. Here, traps work once per season and I can only get our mice to trip it with peanut butter worked into a matrix of cotton fibers. Otherwise, it's just a free snack.
