Summer's Almost Here
I just signed up for the Joker's Wild Half Marathon in St. Louis, Missouri (July 7). Should prove to be a fun time. Only $60, anyone want to run it with me? Heidi and I are also planning on buying a canoe and taking several river trips. Anyone interested in canoeing, give us some dates so we can start planning.
As you can see, Heidi and I are very excited about summer. It has been beautiful here the past few weeks. The sun is taking up more and more of the day, and the temperature is warming. The blankets of white are wearing thin. Summer is right around the corner. Today we went out on a ride and saw the first green of the new year. Come to think of it, I probably haven't seen any green since last October. It was very exciting, and photo worthy (see below).
Below is a picture that was taken about a week or so ago. Heidi and I drove out to the cliffs above North Beach to enjoy the beautiful day and a hot cup of chocolate (Heidi's favorite).
Above & below: These pictures were taken more recently. Notice the complete lack of snow. The Honda washers are back (we call four wheelers Hondas around here), so summer must be close. For only six pieces of pilot bread, a can of Vienna sausages, a can of peaches, and a can of pears you can get a complete wash. That's the best deal in town.
