Mini Adventures - Because Any Adventure is better than No Adventure

We are busy people.  This isn't a competition or anything, but we do have a lot of irons in the fire.  The Beautiful Mrs K and I doubled down this year and decided we were going to go places and do things we enjoyed doing, even if it meant we were pushing some limits.  We've been adventuring all year.  There are times, though, when we have to cram in smaller adventures to accommodate everything we want/need to get accomplished.  Last night we made do with a small adventure to our favorite little hole in the wall coffee house, Cafe Nova
We were the only people sitting outside on the awesome patio, probably because it was a bit chilly.  But we had a big ol' heater making things better as we stuffed ourselves with proper Mediterranean food.  Lovely place, lovely people.
Today, we turned our late afternoon mountain bike ride into an adventure.  Mrs K and I took Eli to Bluffview, one of his favorites.  He's getting so good.  Mrs K told Eli and I to do our thing so she could go do her own ride.  We did 10 miles this time, including the entire West Side of Zombie!  No walking, minimal dabs. I'm so proud of him, as he's even starting to climb really well.  700+ feet of climbing for the young Mr K!
Meanwhile, the Beautiful Mrs K was climbing Zombie East...northward.  Wow, I told her later...that's not exactly the direction I would have told you to go, but YOU GO GIRL!  

Adventures come in many forms.  Stealing away for a quick night out or soaking in the cool evening air, we have to take what we can from life.
