This has been the nearly perfect weekend. I rode nearly 60 miles on the bike and survived to tell the tale. We grilled on the back patio, went for rides in the Jeep with the top off and I indulged in my geek ways along the way.
I feel relaxed and ready to go for the week. It’s a short week for us; Earl and I meet up in Buffalo Thursday night to fly to Chicago on Friday. Next weekend is BearPride weekend, and that’s always a good time.
