    October 9 sounds good to me.

    Works for me too. I put it on my calendar. And there's another pay day between now and then

    And yes, the movers have my bikes. If my house in Louisiana doesn't sell, I'm going to have to break down and get a rental of some flavor - which means I'll have my bikes and ALL my other stuff.

    Actually October 9th might work - it's Thanksgiving weekend here.

    Hummmmmmm.....!!

    Bike ride, too?

    (Is there a pretty big Ibex selection at the Seattle REI? Last time I was down there about 4 years ago there wasn't that much... a Carrie hoodie... and maybe three or four other things.)

    There is some ibex. The bike clothes selections aren't so good (for example they only have men's knickers) but they have lots of Ibex, yes.. I'd love a bike ride. We could go down to the waterfront, up through Myrtle Edwards park, and end up in Fremont... depending on Weather of course.

    Arrg. I just realized that my passport renewal application is still processing (Passport Canada was dissatisfied with the first set of pictures because there was a flash reflection on my forehead.....!) so I don't know if I'll have it back by October 9th.

    It's still two weeks away so my chances are not quite nil, but let's say I won't buy a train ticket ahead of time. Fingers crossed. If I come I'll bring a bike and also plan a book-shopping trip at the Elliott Bay Bookstore.

    ETA: Processing is supposed to take 20 business days so don't expect me on the 9th of October. We could arrange another pre-Christmas shopping trip though. (And, we could go for a bike ride dressed as Santa's little helpers..... A tradition among my friends in Montreal: http://picasaweb.google.ca/tilleylh/...ereNoel200702# )

    All right, I have a question.

    Where is the line between "this is too nice to sleep in" and "it's too cold to take it off" ????

    By December I'll have my bicycles. Found out today the housing market in New Orleans is dead, no one is even looking. So my realtor is going to try to rent out my house. Plan B for me, find a rental for the next several months, either a house or an apartment - but I need a garage for all my extra stuff I'm sure by the time a December bike ride rolls around, I'll need more wool.
