rough weekend.

well, the deck is stained, kevin has bachelor partied, some other odds and ends are taken care of and i am beat. i need to race so i'm not so tired on monday mornings...

the deck staining took exactly twice as long as we thought it should. it was going on pretty light but it never occurred to us that we hadn't mixed it up enough...live and learn. we essentially double stained 1/3 of the deck to get colors right. but it looks really nice now...defniately a party deck. at least it wasn't unbearbly hot (yea right).

i managed to get some time in on the mountain bike this weekend. nothing major, really no need. but it felt good to get out a little.

and, i found a bar 5 minutes from our door that has anchor steam on tap. i don't drink very often but when i do you know where i'll be.

this week will be spent prepping for fat tire. get the bike ready, get the motor ready. then, it's off to eau claire thursday night and then cable on friday morning. i'm really getting excited.

after fat tire, one week of work to endure and then we're off to park city to close out the summer/kick off the fall. r and r (and some mtb time) but mostly r and r.

i better get to work.
