Hey, my ice cream dinners are more healthy than V's! Nutty Buddy's have a cone and nuts so we have dairy, vegetables, grains and nuts. Much mo' bettah!

this aging parents thing is so hard. Lean on that Wonder Poodle of yours. Puppers are the best in the tough times...and they'll share the ice cream with you!

Mine not only wants to share the ice cream, but he has to lick the bowl when I'm done! We call it the 'pre-wash' cycle!

Oh, we here in Idaho haven't seen that blue stuff in quite awhile. Had a tornado east of us yesterday, though. That just doesn't happen too often in these parts! Today the wind is really howling. Isn't spring just peachy?!

My goodness, so much can happen in a couple of days whilst one's internet is down!

SK, sounds like you need the ride next week. The good news is the forecast is getting BETTER. It now looks like Friday is the only day where we might be wet all day. From what I understand (from Mr. Abbey's chapter on the Maze), the terrain out there turns to goo when it rains. We're gonna have some dirty bikes. I think I'll bring an extra package of baby wipes.

FYI, I just looked out the window and it's SNOWING again here in Salt Lake. I was expecting rain, not snow. As Melinda pointed out, the weather here is quite moody. I think we saw it all yesterday.

And waaaah! I've said it before and I'll say it again: I MISS ICE CREAM! Lise, not only is yogurt substandard... sorbet, soy, whatever...NOT the same as Chunky Monkey.

Guess I'd better go get my butt on the trainer.

Edit: proof that it would be a little messy today:

You, Veronica and I are all getting a severe case of the whines. Bubba is adding his basso profundo from Monterey.

Yeah, that red rock country definitely turns to goo. If it starts to rain very hard, the support truck will get mired. If we're on a road, they'll pull up along side and give you 2 options: get in the truck NOW or guarantee that you'll make it to camp under your own power.

Thanks, everyone, for your support. The Wonder Poodle did a good job last night of loudly snoring in a comforting sort of way. Funny how you get so used to certain sounds that if they are missing can disrupt your sleep. Just in a wait and see mode now.
