Wind

Why did I get the camping gear out? That is a good question considering it is now clogging up the entire Chesapeake Room. However, I am proud of myself for remembering how to set up the quick stove. The pin is hidden behind the manifold. Lunch was outstanding, waffles take on a new dimension when eaten in a Gortex Sierra model Dome 220. Am I bragging, yes, but that is natural. I attempted to put everything away, but I noticed a ten-speed my Australian neighbor Craig gave me as a going away present. I believe he ended up in Orlando. Anyway, I oiled her up and headed out for a ride. Yes diary, Voit makes a quality ride. She took to the canyon roads like a magpie to a summer wind. I remembered what Craig said about bicycling for exercise; "It'll be sure to put lead in your pencil, mate." I am not sure if that is true, but I will say that the Bowflex is now on the auction block.
