I am trying to get into some kind of 'groove' with this cycling thing. Jana and I parked on our lot and then rode around Lake Caroline Sunday afternoon. We rode for about 2 hours, but walked through 2 open houses and visited with a Conservation Officer friend, so I figure we actually rode about 1 1/2 hours. The weather was great and the Lake really looked inviting - I guess some future XT will be cleaning up and servicing the pontoon boat for this season - yuck! Jana commented that Sunday would have been a great evening for what we call a "booze cruise" - leisurely riding around the shoreline on the pontoon, sipping on wine and watching the sunset - always a relaxing, pleasant time.
Monday I worked til dark and do NOT ride the bike after dark - just too dangerous, so this afternoon while Jana ran at the Strawberry park (her best time yet!), I rode pretty hard for 8 miles in 40 minutes. I actually rode up to the park (took my chances on St. Augustine Street), and walked one of her intervals with her, sharing my water. Then rode home and started supper - cut up 2 kinds of bell peppers, onion, mushrooms, garlic and olive oil, seasoned some salmon, then cooked the veggies and the salmon on the grill. Served both over whole wheat angel hair pasta with a little parmesian cheese. Now that was a super supper! [You know, I just spoil her, don't I? :-))) ] OK girls, trying for points here! Ha!
If any of ya'll are looking for a Father's Day gift - I got my Big Green Egg grill last year on Father's Day (Madison Fireplace and Patio had a special last year). I will never use another type grill, ever! It is by far the best - grill, barbecue, smoke, slow cook, you name it. Makes the best steaks (oops, I don't think steaks are a super food - forget I said that).
Keep on - Marathoners!
