Bikes to the Freedom Farm Polo Event in Watertown and back: 236 minutes, 40.9 miles, 10.1 mph, HR=140. We took the Luce Line to Watertown, then road shoulders out to the Freedom Farm. On the return we took the road shoulders to St. Boni and rode the new trail back. The new trail goes right behind the Minnetonka Drive In. We enjoyed a burger, onion rings and shake while watching the activity. I read somewhere this past week that only an idiot would install a wireless “N” network in a home environment. Well . . . . . I must respectfully disagree. I’ve been meaning to replace my wireless router for quite some time. Since mine hasn’t been working, I decided to tackle that tonight. I had a Linksys WRT300N Wireless-N Broadband Router on the shelf. It took less than a half hour to get it up and running. The only (non)issue I have is that I can’t get the Wireless-G range expander to work. I’m hoping I don’t need it.

A security system service call has me home for the afternoon. Hanna does not do well with a change in routine, she whines like a toddler that’s missed a nap. My “Baby” is 25 today. How on earth did that happen? Fox/Willow/Watertown Loop: 72 minutes, 4.13 miles, 3.4 mph, HR=122.

Early Mass. I think Microsoft’s new Mesh service is going to take care of my grocery list issue quite nicely! “Stitch & Pitch” at the Metro Dome, too bad the Twins lost. Fox/Willow/Watertown Loop: 74 minutes, 4.12 miles, 3.3 mph, HR=117.

The original plan was for a long bike ride. Gloomy weather made for a change in plans. Much laundry and projects around the house were accomplished instead. We met some friends for dinner then headed to UpTown for the ArtCar Cruise. I can’t even begin to explain this awesome event, go look at the photos!

Avery had a snot nose and nasty cough. We spent most of the day reading books and playing games. We did spend some time on the neighbor’s beach.

I was going to go to the grocery store, but I decided I didn’t need to bad enough.
