Crusing Down Lakeshore with My Baby
Yesterday, I rode out to the lighthouse by myself. On the way back I detoured down 6 mile to view the Big Dig. Looks like a bike could still make it through. I got 25 miles.
Today, Anne and I drove to the lighthouse and launched from there. We went as far as Naomikong Point. The hatchery is closed for renovation. light traffic and a tailwind back made for a nice ride. Not to mention the weather. We got 36 miles.
Last night the resident clan threw a surprise party for me. There was Fran, Betty, Grinch, Gene, Harry, Dave and of course Anne and ice cream cake. Looking back I should have known. No desert, until I broke out some chocolate. Gene ate it, but it was against her will (Pa Pa).
Happy Birthday Aimee
… and me!
Happy Birthday Aimee and me!
Happy Birthday Aimee and me!
Happy Birthday to us.
Is That A White Tail Deer?
Well I guess so since the rest of it is white too.
Anne and I went biking today. The weather was gray and cloudy as we headed out on the road. The Green Tunnel road was strewn with puddles. We headed west to the lighthouse.
Passing through Brimley, Anne started playing one of her favorite games, “Look Deer!”, as we pass some deer statuary. Less then a mile later, just as we were entering the reservation she starts again, “Look Dear!!” I notice the white deer statue out of the corner of my eye and go, “Yes, Dear.” To which Anne answers, “Stop Mark! This one is real!” So it was, a real albino. We stop, take some pretty good pictures. Sorry, I haven’t figured out how to get the XO to talk to the camera. Maybe later.
We headed onto the lighthouse, did the tourist thing. The lady there had seen the deer too. I guess it has been around for a while. On the way back we saw it again, same spot. I wonder what Indian lore says about a white deer? Also on the way back we stopped at the Dancing Crane Coffee House, for lattes and espressos. There was a nine month old bouncing up and down in a Johnny Jumper seat. Look out, Dave.
Harry asked us to pick up tomatoes at the IGA, so we stopped there but they were out until tomorrow. There we met a old guys on a bicycle. On his bike’s back he had a birdcage. In the birdcage were two birds, Quaker parrots, Bill and Trixie. He said that they had ridden back there to FL five times and back.
Leaving the IGA it finally starts to rain. So we ride back in the rain. One nice thing about the constructionon 6 mile is that it is a much nicer road to bike, when it isn’t raining. I got 25 miles.
Soon I Will Be Invincible
Soon I Will Be Invincible is a first novel by Austin Grossman. It is a first person internal monologue. Primarily, we hear from Doctor Impossible, mad scientist who wants to take over the world. I gave this book to Dave to read on the way up. Now was this wise? Was it wise to share the ramblings of a mad scientist with someone young and impressionable? Someone who will be taking genetics, organic chemistry, heat and mass transfer and computational biology? After all we know about his father.
