    Very nice Lisa! And congrats on the bee hive. Reminds me of the book The Secret Lives of Bees.

    Congrats on the new place Deb - and finding the shorts!

    Well, I met Trigress today We had a nice long hike and chat. She is wonderful and quite the tiny gal. We had a bit of a challange finding the park and the trails were not marked well so we got in a little longer hike, lol. The day was beautiful though and so was the company. She took pix and will post them when she can. Yeah! I met another amazing TE gal!

    Well, it's been a few days since this thread has been active.
    What's new?
    I have been buying cycling clothes for my son! So, it's a vicarious thrill. My DH already gave him a thermal jacket, some regular and long fingered gloves, a few head covers. So far, he is still commuting, even at temps in the low 40s in the AM. But, he definitely wants to get a road/touring bike and "train" some next spring. I bought him 2 pairs of shorts, which I scored for $19.00 each, at STP. Then I researched like crazy, and got him a pair of thermal tights, unpadded for $80, reduced from $160.00 at Backcountry.com outlet. Today, EMS had their club day, so I got him a regular cycling wind jacket which is really light and reflective, for 20% off.
    I think I'd better stop. My DH ordered him a pannier, so I am going to put it all in the pannier and give it to him next Friday, on his birthday.

    My son is applying for a job at Ciclismo Classico as a trip consultant!
    Here's hoping he gets it and I can get a discount on a trip .
    I mean, he's fluent in Italian, rides, and has business experience. I guess it wouldn't look good to have mom come in a threaten them to hire him.
