Nice Week

I had a good week this week!  One of the best things was riding with my son who put in 50 miles on his bike.  He loves it and continues to improve.  I then put in about 250 of my own miles and am feeling as strong as ever.  My speed is better and I don't seem to mind the extreme heat and humidity of the day.  I like to ride in the heat and ride in the rain unless it is torrential.  On Thursday, Jared and I rode 10 miles and then I rode another fifty.  In the evening, it was raining and the riders seemed to love it.  Why not just keep riding...it is generally cooler and most of the time I am sweaty anyway.
The only downside is the amount of grass that keeps expanding over the property.  When I mowed this week, I had to go really slow as not to bog the mower as it was just so tall from all the rain.  The vegetable garden is doing well, although the heat is starting to get to the peas.  The tomatoes are excellent and the greens are awesome and won't stop growing.
My neighbor gave me some organic corn seed that I can't wait to plant.  Wouldn't it be cool to have a huge acre garden and share with the neighbors?  :-)

A Wonderful Day

Jared and I were invited to spend the day on the water with our friends Matt and Lisa.  We had a great time playing with dogs, swimming in the pool, chatting it up, and some fun time in the power boat going out to the beach!  They even loaned out to Jared a BikeE to ride.  He loves it!!!!!  Here are some good pictures.  Enjoy!

Space: The Final Frontier...

I have stumbled upon a real treat.  A continuation of a five year mission in "Star Trek Continues".  I have watched most of the first episode and am impressed with how it is like the original in filming.  I can't say the actors are exactly like the original, but they work.  The lighting and the hoaky sets are perfect.  I'm ready for more!  Check it out here Star Trek fans:  http://www.startrekcontinues.com/
