    We FINALLY have had several beautiful sunny days in a row. We managed to paint our kitchen porch- which had been sanded and prepped SEVEN WEEKS ago before the rains started.

    Trying to catch up now on my weeding and gardening and outdoor chores. It's beautiful outside! All that rain sure makes me appreciate lovely weather now.

    We cleaned out our garage this morning. We sold our old tandem to one of Thom's coworkers a couple of weeks ago. Today another one of the guys in his group bought Milo, my MB1. He's says he'll keep the name. It's a beautiful bike, but once I stressed out my knee, I couldn't get him set up right to not irritate it.

    We've got lots of errands to do this afternoon - drop off hazardous waste, buy me some new running shoes, ship off some stuff, pick some rock for the front yard...

    Busy day!

    I did a one hour mentor led training walk this morning. I was home, showered and ready to go by 10:00, I like that. Quick trips to Target (Tar-zhay!), CVS and Pet Food Express. Chloe is now well stocked with kibble and cookies.

    I just found out that a good friend in Phoenix died suddenly yesterday. I am absolutely numb. There are things I need to do today, like go to the grocery store, but all I want to do is curl into the fetal position and ball my eyes out. Not that it will change matters, or bring Yehudah back.

    Me two.

    Yesterday, Bubba took me on a side route I'd never tried. Today I'm floating on air because I rode a really long half pipe with the trough getting deeper and deeper. The last 4 swoops were 10 ft deep with nearly vertical sides.

    The ol' brain is finally not shouting at me and letting me really RIDE!

    Had a small lie down in a manzanita bush (a la DirtDiva) but that was from going in too hot to handle the bank on the tree at the top rather my normal too slow and scared. Yippee!

    uh oh

    Our company arrives next weekend ...At least we're going to visit a coolio place we've been meaning to venture to for a while.

    http://www.menzies.wa.gov.au/tourism...e_ballard.html

    What is it with the weather forecasters? They say for sat-a chance of showers..What that really means is=we have no clue but we'll say showers because that's what the weather's been like lately...

    At least the trails have had a chance to dry out these past few days Can't wait to do some dirt time tomorrow aft..
