15 miles avg pace overall 10:02...a little faster than last week...

sunshine, nice weather-60s to 70s

all the flowering trees are in full bloom...it's beautiful

ran with squatting dog while her mr & my mr rode bikes behind us and taunted us...good fun

passed "dolly" the sheep's house...she was hanging out in the shade by the watering hole with a goat & didn't pay any attention to us, but we gave her a shout out as we ran by

had a little trouble driving the car into the garage with the bike still mounted on top....oops

looks like we'll be in the business for shopping around for a new roof rack, bike rack,, primer/putty & auto paint.......never a dull Saturday run 4 us.  We thought we'd missed the boat when we were driving home and nothing interesting had happened. Forgot to knock on wood.    We'll laugh about it someday.

Went to Civil War re-enactment.  Not as captivating as I'd imagined....or maybe it's just not like I remember it being portrayed on tv/movies.  It was something interesting to see, glad I was able to go.

Found a book for sale in one of the tents.  It is titled "What's a Poor Girl To Do? Prostitution In the Mid-Nineteenth Century."  Very informative.  Not quite Oprah book club material, but still something new to "expand my horizons."

Great long run.

That's too bad about the bike rack. I felt pretty bad when I didn't pull far enough into the garage and broke off the rear windshield wiper with the garage door, but I do love my new windshield wiper. It works better than the old one ever did.

That sounds like a very strange book.

Holy Moly lady - you are right! Never a dull Saturday. I thought maybe the bike would end up in the ditch :) guess I was a little off the mark.

Nice run and mileage! That country run is one I'll have to do with you when I make it out there again. Sounds exciting!

Maybe the re-enactment wasn't that good, because that girl spoiled the ending for you! :)
