Mid-week fun...

goneroundthebendSorry it's been a few days since I've posted...but this past week had me back up in DC *mid-week* instead of on the weekend! And why is that you might ask? Well...some of you might *not* ask, but I'll talk about it *any*way!
Ann and I took our anniversary trip to see Al Stewart up close in a rather small venue called Rams Head right there in Annapolis, MD. We stayed at a B&B within walking distance of many restaurants and the venue itself; so once we escaped from DC and arrived in town the car got parked and we relaxed the rest of the evening just walking from shop to shop taking in the local sights experiencing the occasional sea breeze from the water.
It was rather nice.
But...then the real world strikes back and the day after I have to drive back down home for a session with my physical therapist for some back issues that have bothered me for quite a few weeks now. I'll spare the audience the details...
The training continues for the St.Paul marathon in August as I gradually work up to a 26 mile skate. I'm not close to that distance yet, but I guess I have a few more weeks to go.
So now let's see if I can work down the backlog of e-mails and a sundry tasks around the house.

Other seasonal hazards could include gumballs and twigs that like to litter the streets. It's funny that I still can't name any of the streets I skate due to having to continually scan the road immediately in front of me...ahwell...
An upside is seeing everyone else that is getting out to either walk, run, or bike around the neighborhood.
Isn't there a riverside skate you've done in the past? *One* of these trips you'll have to show me the trail! No ice storms now!! ^_^
