We had a great weekend shared with good friends and family - who happen to be the best hostess/es anyone could ask for...
Headed to the CBus area for the weekend to ride in an organized family bike ride in Waldo, The Hot Tamale Ride. Most of us were scheduled to ride 32 miles - one went for the 16 mile ride. All finished their course but me - hmmmm. I am happy I was able to make it as far as I did but disappointed; cause when you set your mind to finish you want to finish - right? Come to find out the ride was actually about 37 miles and I finished 31.5-32 miles, so ok, rode what I thought I set out to do - but still you want to cross the finish line. The ride was not "flat" as they stated and stops along the course, pretty much nonexistant. One stop for food and bathroom break, needed water stops - an improvement I will certainly suggest and thoroughly encourage.
Anyway, received a splotchy sunburn even after putting on sunscreen - yes the new med I was on states to stay out of prolonged sun exposure - guess I didn't read that too well. Most of us did get sun while riding but it wasn't really anything due to sunscreen we did put on before the ride.
Our hostesses put on a lunch when we returned that was wonderful; and then we sat around and played cards, chatted, relaxed and enjoyed the remainder of the day. Dinner was fabulous as always and we had so much fun!
Monday - Pork or chicken, roasted potatoes, veggie or salad
Tuesday - opposite of Monday, red pepper/onion sauteed with seasoning, rice
Wednesday - Breakfast for dinner
Thursday - out of town R on his own (funny if you know R - I will actually be on my own)
Friday - Homemade Grill Pizza
Might be back in CBus Thursday - it will be a last minute thing I am sure. Patootie on Wed - Thurs night if we go out of town. Would really like to get lamppost in on Saturday - guess we'll see! Have a great week!
