Interesting weekend, time to get back on the fitness horse.
Guitar legend Dick Dale passed away over the weekend. Happy to say that I was able to see him perform a few times at The EARL; knew I should have made an effort to see him again when he was here last year.
What a memorable sound he had…
How was the swim meet?
Saturday evening was the Hunt Ball. Debbie was in change of the silent auction items. I was outbid on a nice bottle of bourbon with tray and glasses and she was outbid on lots of things! The band was great as always and we danced quite a bit.
Met an old friend and his new wife for Mexican lunch Sunday. He had a shop vac he was getting rid of and I needed a bigger one, so we were able to deal.
A ride of 24 miles or so in the afternoon. My first ride on the road bike (on the road) in some months. My quads feel it today- and they did last night as well.
Taxes done. U.G.L.Y. $6200. I hope that makes you feel a little better Paulie.

Swim meet was fine. A lot of the things this weekend didn’t work out as I planned/hoped, but that’s always going to be the case.
Good for you getting out to ride. I need to do the same, as well as be more strict about getting daily exercise.
I also need to start getting some real shit done in my life, see also – health, home, finances.
Your unfortunate position doesn’t make me feel better, I still have to fork over $4000 more.
true dat.
I went for a longer than I planned walk with Sal & JoAnna’s dogs Saturday (she is dog sitting) – what we had thought would be 4-5 miles, ended up being 6.7 miles.
it was a nice day -so I was glad to get the extra exercise.
Went to Jeff Foxworthy last minute with some friends since someone was sick – he’s pretty funny – and – it was a sea of white people at the Cobb Energy Center. Great venue.
Black Sheep yesterday was interesting – lost trail early – found a fake mark (Long Cut thinks people drive around before trail looking for marks) so Davey, Just Licks & I went that way anyway. We wandered thru some lovely woods, followed a creek, just guessing what way we thought the hares would be going. And – eventually – we just happened on some flour!!! got to the beer stop, just licks was told a short cut from there, and it was maybe 100 yards to the end. We ended up with just under 3 miles, but if we’d gone back out on trail it would have been a 6 mile trail, so we were happy to call it a day. And – we got to miss the chest high flooded water at Rope Mill Park.
