Biking Trinity Park
Sandy had wanted to go biking to Trinity park and I honestly hadn’t been there in ages so it sounded like a good idea. Until, that is, we realized that it was spring break, and it was half-priced Wednesday at the zoo. It was packed but we manage to do about 20 miles. It was…

Sandy’s Back
Picked up Sandy from the airport, she’s been awake since 3:30am eastern so she’s exhausted. Gave me a chance to mow the back yard and take a bike ride. I’m at 400 miles on the bike. It’s a bunch of fun and I got a rear view mirror for it but it’s too convex, I’ll…

Sandy’s Home Tomorrow
While I do like it when I have the run of the place to myself, it’s awfully nice to have her come back home. It also gives me a reason to clean and get housework done. That way she has a nice clean house to come home to. I do believe that I broke the…

Lost Hour on a Sunday
Let me start by saying I’m not much for one listening to people belly aching about the loss of an hour. Suck it up buttercup, it’s not like you didn’t know it was coming. Spend an hour less on the phone and it’ll be ok. I went over to sisters and did some tree cutting,…

Life is Pretty Amazing
It got colder today, we can honestly say it got back to normal temps today. I did get a chance to roll for another ride today despite the colder temps. It was an introspective ride as my better half wasn’t there. Loved the dumpster called sweet dumps in pink! Also included are pictures of the…

Beautiful Day for a Ride
The thing that the eBike brings to the table is a consistent ride. I still pedal, but if I’m going uphill, I use pedal assist and it’s like level ground. So 10 miles isn’t really that much of a workout BUT it’s an amazing exploration that you just can’t do any other way. I work…

Airport Run
Sandy left for MA today. Her mom’s birthday is on Saturday and we were going to blow the 2k on fuel to go up and visit but there were no obvious RV places available. Odd but true. We left the house at about 5am and got to the airport with plenty of time to spare.…

Milestones Reached
It was a banner day for spring project completion at the house. Another 105 sq ft of pavers were laid and the alley to the backyard is bricked. and the eastern front yard bed has been raked and trimmed thanks to Sandy’s efforts. I also cleaned up the east side by the HVAC unit. We…

Yardwork Day
I’m not sure how it happened but I got Sandy involved with yardwork and we took it to the Nth degree but we got an amazing amount done. I got some cleaning done behind the shed, more dirt moved, leaves picked up and bushes trimmed. We had a ridiculous amount of bags out at the…

Xterra Inspected
The lesson learned today is that the TPMS needs to be replaced after 16 years and it costs about $260 to do so. I also learned that they aren’t needed for inspection so I’ll circle back around to that when I have a job. I did get the Xterra inspected at Jiffy Lube, it was…
