pictures later.....

So, yesterday we set out for Karyn's training ride for the Tour de Cure (for diabetes) in August... Also we were checking out the route for her to ride to work on Wednesday this week - Bike To Work Day - thank your Denver Council Of Regional Governments (Dr. COG)! we went out about 9 miles and headed back - the goal was 18 miles round trip. Tucker asks how many miles we have ridden - I yell back 17.5.... he detours and we arrive at home with 18.5 miles on the trip-o-meter!

Then, we are off to the bank to sign paperwork - on a Saturday! - for Karyn's new-to-her-car - see previous blogs. 2004 Jetta TDI, diesel, manual... bike racks, OMG - compared to the Aspire it's unbelievable!!!!

Back to the house... then walk up to the neighborhood street fair where we run into one of Tucker's ex-coworkers and family.

Then, off to a birthday party for Nicole - who we met in a lift line many years ago.

Then, off to a dinner party at Kristi and Andy's house - college friends. We meet about every 6-8 weeks at someone's house for dinner and fun! We had a great time! Then a stop at Diane and Marty's house for a head cauliflower because they were off on vacation for a week!

Then, up this morning (early - 8:30... hahahahhaahahahahahahah~). Karyn builds (and completes) the 5 foot section of stairs for the deck. The 10 foot section will wait for a few weeks. tucker trims the windows in the upstairs master bedroom so that we can move our bedroom to the air conditioned space! whoo hoo! Karyn fixes a flat in a mountain bike that is on loan - finds out that she thinks she adores it.... oh no!

We discuss ... vacation coming up - a week with Doug and the girls!!!! I cannot wait to kill the fishies! I mean, visit the family and have grown up conversations.

On the other hand... Father's Day reminds me of all my friends that are celebrating their first!!!!

hope that is enough for today - it is for me!
