V, the tulips are definitely in front of the patio. Yea!

Thank you for the dedication.
How many times do I have to tell you to not to put your banana's in your pocket, you should definitely take advice from Ernie:

I started the day off by sleeping in so I missed the bus. I put my ski gear on, stuffed a bagel in my mouth and a banana in my pocket, and I headed out the door. I parked at the ski lodge just a row behind the Doughers and headed up to the ski hut for the disabled assistance program. I was apprehensive about today because my participant had some troubles last week. He started off much the same, which wasn't that great, as he has about fifty pounds over me and I had to catch him twice. By "catch" I mean slow his descent as he falls on me. But he improved quite a bit during the two hour session so that was great. This was the last day of the program, so when we went back to the hut they were serving cheeseburgers. As we sat down to eat, I noticed some odd sticky moisture accumulating on the side of my snow pants. This is about the time I remembered the banana in my pocket. Yech. The end.

Good start to today. Yoga first, then a ten plus mile bike ride with AO. Now I'm waiting for food!

But I guess that time it did. Ran 2 miles and got a pedicure all before 10am now I am off to Ithica for some Jimmy Johns.

Sometimes I post from my blackberry and the post never comes up

Just discovered I have 3 weekends in a row of time shifts coming up here.

Me too, if by "Constant Comment" you mean "whiskey" and by "Dougher honey" you mean "whiskey".

Thinking of the Ohler side of the family this morning as I drink Constant Comment with some Dougher honey. Good way to start the morning.

ugg these people are dropping like flies around here.

very nice, thanks for posting that mom

that was quite spectacular. I remember working at IDOT a few years back overlooking I-55 and the lake and watching those things way overhead by the hundreds of thousands.

Okay. I have yoga from 9:30 to 10:15, but I can come up after that.

Saturday if it doesn't rain.

Tim and Bethany Romer have another son, born last night, over five pounds so bigger than expected.

Yes A.O. the bike ride sounds good, what day and time.

Bummer man, my friend's cancer is back. This is not a good year so far.

Mom, your bike is ready for riding. Want to come up this weekend and take it for a test run?

were they finished? sounds efficient.

Taking that 'temp' title to heart.

my temp that was supposed to be on a 9 month assignment just quit after 2 days...

Well the view looks nice.

Mary and I were at the pier for the Flower Show -- it should be renamed The Vendor Show, not a lot of flowers there, and even fewer plants to purchase. Sort of disappointing.

Who's doing what on the pier?

That may be the funniest thing I've ever done. I wouldn't have guessed I liked such low-brow humor.

Keep it cold and drinking it through a straw makes drinking it faster and I tasted it less.

I've only had 4 oz and I'm already sick of this Colyte solution. You think the doctor will be mad if I mix it with Vodka?

Thanks for a good weekend 9 & 6. The 3s are great fun! I guess there is a nice picture of the seven of us in the "junk" folder of relho mail...anyway....better pics on FB.

Back in NY. After gas stop there was no stop between there and here and the trip took right at 5 hours.
