It was my first bike ride of the season yesterday--and I must say it felt great. There are some fantastic bike trails in Middleton (near the new Costco of all places)...and once you dart through all the traffic it's really quite peaceful..and the best part...not too hilly.
Mike and I even saw a great blue heron chilling in one of the little streams back there. Those birds are huge!
We only went around 12 miles this time..but next time hope to venture a little farther..maybe into the Pheasant Branch Conservancy to see if they got any more of the bridges completed. Last year we rode through there and all they had was little stone-like steps you could cross on...Mike had to carry my bike over for me..and then come back and get me, holding my hand so I wouldn't fall in.
I know, I'm not much of an adventurer. But I guess it's better that I spend my afternoons in the "wilds" of Middleton instead of sitting on the couch watching Judge Judy!

One small detail I like about Bonnaroo ... the security people's shirts say "Safety" and "Here to help". They seem well-trained and they do the things security folk do ... but I like the emphasis on safety and that they're doing these things...
The Jack Johnson show last night was terrific. He'd been coming just to hang out with other musicians, maybe do a late night jam with friends in ALO. Very low-pro, as Jack said. That changed when Mumford had their medical emergency...
Still no mag. This is as close as my phone zoom can get. The dancers are sparkly. Bjork has a dress that looks like duct work from a dryer vent. The hat face thing looks like a cross between bubble wrap and pinhead from Hellraiser. Which could all be...
We waited at the main gate for over a half hour. A dozen safety full were poised to open the fences. Three on horseback provided back up. When they opened them up, it was a speed walk at first. Upon seeing that another, distant gate had...
