Thanks to my wife for this delicious dinner! Chicken Provençal on a bed of spinach with some sour cream:
Alas, her version was served on a bed of wheat pasta. Forgot to take a picture of that or I could have featured a "Paleo dos and don'ts” column.

In my efforts to do more cross training and enjoy the outdoors, I’m thinking about going to a MovNat training in West Virginia this summer. You get to spend a week in the woods learning how to do barefoot running, and just generally ripping it up on trails, trees, rocks, and lake. Erwan Le Corre makes it look easy:

Sunrise on Haleakalā was stunning, but since we had to leave immediately afterward as part of the bike tour we were on, we had no time to do any hiking down into the Haleakalā “crater.” (Technically, it’s not a crater, but that’s the easiest way to describe it).
I’m glad we spent another morning driving up there to explore a bit more as it’s a fantastic area. The only downside is that you start the hike with a descent down into the crater and then have a long trudge uphill breathing thin 10,000 foot air on the way back.
There are three cabins down in the crater, and if you are lucky with the reservation lottery, you could plan a fantastic hike from the summit to one of the cabins, spend the night, and then spend the next day hiking a trail all the way down to the east coast of Maui, where you would need a car pickup. That, along with actually riding up to the summit of Haleakalā by bike are on my list for next time I come here.
You can see why NASA once had astronauts in training practice moonwalks in this same area:
