Anyway, I may have a mental mind block of how hard it really is, so I am very impressed that you are continuing to expand your garden.

I can certainly appreciate your reticence about gardening, but if you ever decide to do it again, you will find it to be not as hard as you remember, and three times the fun.

As Mitchell's dad, I kind of prefer to lead by example. My dad pulled a bunch of that same kind of stuff yours did, particularly about washing his car. I made it a point not to do that in my own life. When there's work to do and Mitchell is helping, I'm always leading the charge.

Beside, Mitchell is usually busy trying to ride our goats...

Got two offers on my house after 10 days with lots of traffic in general. Found a new crib too and made an offer tonight. Will see how it all goes. . .

Sucks showing your house. Gotta leave all the damn time when peeps come. Looking at them isn't as bad but not a joyride.

I hope to take my boys on a hike or somethin' tomorrow. I think the warm weather might be finally upon us. :cool2:

It's not necessarily very warm out here in the Roaring Fork Valley, but THE SUN IS OUT... YAY!!!! That's huge since it's been so gloomy, snowy, sleeting, rainy, and muddy for the last several days. Going to get bundled up in a bit and haul my kid into town in his trailor behind my bike to go visit the train museum and probably stop for lunch along the way. :mrgreen:

Sleeping in, playing Halo3, and making a mammoth pan of my famous 4-cheese lasagne.

BTW, special thanks to Price -- he was the only one that came out to cheer me on in last weekend's half marathon. :2thumbs:

Under 2 hours. :2thumbs:

For the record, I think Price was there to cheer on his significant other. I bumped into him on Trax after I had finished.

My last final is today, so it's going to be my beloved Halo3/R6V2/COD4 weekend. It'll be beautiful. I haven't played online for a while.

Not a bad idea, thank God the flow has dropped a bit, down to 12,800 now. If we are lucky we might get down to 11k by tomorrow.

There is a name for these flows on Westwater canyon on Colorado river, called "terrible teens". If you mess up and swimming, most likely you have to swim 4-5 class IV rapids in a row :eek2: .... but think of the footage we are going to get! :lol8: Two helmet cameras rolling at the same time, woohoo! :rockon:

Two years i went to this race. Last lap: Scott Pruett's car and the Sun Trust car were trading paint and just past the roller coaster the 3rd place Ruby Tuesday car zoomed past both to take the checkered flag. This year Pruett held off the #2 car over the closing laps to capture victory. Exciting stuff in the Virginia countryside.
