Leftover birthday cake and a really close game of Scrabble.
She from Me, Now I from Her. Thank You, Jessica.
“Love is a temporary madness; it erupts like volcanoes and then subsides. And when it subsides you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of eternal passion. That is just being in love, which any fool can do. Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident. Those that truly love have roots that grow towards each other underground, and when all the pretty blossoms have fallen from their branches, they find that they are one tree and not two.” Louis de Bernieres from Captain Corelli’s Mandolin

Minneapolis Bike Tour on “DoubleTrouble”: 164 minutes, 37.46 miles, 13.7 mph, HR=119. We met my friend, Jane and her friends, Paul and Paula at the start, but lost them right away. A Geocache in the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden. My iPhone 3GS was more accurate than my Garmin Oregon 400t GPS. Go figure.

LuceLine East & Home through Town: 141 minutes, 7.61 miles, 18:34/3.2, HR=95. My first “crash & burn” with the Dogs. I was looking at the chickens and Hanna decided there was something she needed to check out on the other side of the trail. No serious damage done.

I love a girlfriend who replies; “Let’s get sweaty and chat-a-way! See you at 4:30.”

Early Mass. Road trip to Annandale for an Art Show. Lunch at a quaint roadside café. A GeoCache. Lakeside chat. My favorite were the mice pieces by Walt Horton. Richard Bresnahan also had some pieces that I liked. Peter Schulzetenberg’s woodworking is beautiful as well.
