Went with cycling friends on a lovely 27.5 mile ride through Boxborough, Harvard, and Bolton and back to Acton. We left early (9:30) and it was good. No cars and hardly any cyclists. My friend wasn't having a good day and felt tired, so we shortened our ride a bit, but it was still really nice; 73 degrees, partly sunny, breezy. It finally feels like summer. Of course, our friend, in his relentless need to climb, took us up a a few streets we always go down. It's a series of 5 hills, where only the first one is really steep, but, still, it slowed me down! And, it's always fun to see things from the opposite direction. I reminded my DH that he had taken me up this route, when I first started riding, on my old mountain bike, with sneakers, on a 95 degree day...
Watching the end of the first stage of the Tour and getting ready to go back to friends for BBQ.
And this morning we got the good news that our son is coming home from Iraq a month early! Only 4.5 more weeks.
