Trek - we must have seen them as they were leaving Nashville. Looks like they're headed to Raleigh, NC. Yesterday they were taking almost the same route we did. We were on 40 and it looks like they were paralleling it. Whoever was riding (we didn't see any riders, unfortunately) had to go through some really bad storms. Not fun.
I'm sitting here waiting on another family (wife and kids) to meet us to go swimming. My kids are currently trading off jumping on the beds and playing hide and seek under the covers. At least y'all can bring me some sanity :)
There are some really bad cartoons on toon disney channel. Help me! ;)
Just got up and am sitting here a bit catatonic. I don't know how you do it fishdr, I'm just sitting here in a very quite (just two adults) house, I think my head would pop if there was yelling and jumping going on first thing in the am. :eek:
fishdr "Looks like they're headed to Raleigh, NC."
ok, who here's in Raleigh?
sorry about the zoo fishdoc, I could not take it either.

I just had to jump on this thread to say, "WOW!" because I saw the team car traveling down I-15 in Utah a week or two back. Hadn't really thought much about it 'til I saw this thread. I'll have to watch the website for progress now.Quote:

I'm sorry, you can not just jump in like that. We only allow the discussion of birds, chocolate and Lises dates on thread Drift :rolleyes: :cool: ;) ;)
I saw some great birds on my cameraless ride today. A huge flock of cattle egrets, a sandhill crane, an ibis, some dark heron.
There aren't any mosquitos here because it hasn't rained. When I am sitting out at night, there are gnats. On some rides, more to the south, I've been bothered by deer flies if I stop. Not too bad right now. I'd rather have rain and mosquitos than none.
Aaaahhhh - the day is almost over. The kids just got out of the pool (we went to the BBQ instead of pool this morning). The little one is passed out on the bed. The not-as-little one is changing clothes. We're headed out to dinner with the other family. I've had a lot more fun on this trip than I thought I would. Made new friends and eaten a lot of good food. Too much perhaps. At least they're not jumping on the beds anymore. I think they're worn out :D It made me smile to hear that y'all would've been going crazy, too. :)
AuntieK - cool that you saw the team, too. They're finishing up in the next day or two. They've raised something like $47,000! Wow! They're ending up in VA - I know we have people from there on here.
Here's my chocolate discussion requirement - had some good brownies today :)
Off to dinner - talk to y'all later tonight!
Oh yeah - Nanci we have mosquitos every month of the year. Drought or not. We're surrounded by rice fields :)
They also talk a lot about wine. I just whine. I say, jump on in, especially if you've got a really nice, pretty well educated, currently unmarried, >5'9", employed, reasonably active guy friend who's not intimidated by a woman who is pretty smart and likes to ride her bike really fast....;) Even if you don't! Thread drift is open to all comers. It would be a good idea to arrive with chocolate...Quote:

Photo guy is being very polite and friendly, but not taking up my hints that I'd like to see him again, so his status is now "in the wind", alas. and the beat goes on...
I'm at work, one lady laboring away, another lady on her way in, so I hope to have at least one birth before my shift ends. I plan to bike down to the lake tomorrow evening for a seminar on the beach. about wetsuits and open water swims. Should be fun.
Dear Trek,
If yer workin', how come yer on TE?
I wish my work was like that....:D
Still have no chocolate, no wine, no birds, and no guys. (can I substitute "gorgeous hotties" for "guys" in that order? and can I supersize that?);) ;)
going out grocery shopping in a bit. Can remedy the first 3 with enough $$. Have no idea what to make for dinner. Maybe just nachos.
