Today - mainly focused on maintaining hardware. Took mom's Honda mower to the shop for the hard starting problem. Changed the oil and plug on the Toro and sharpened the blade. Cleaning the garage - 2 boxes of stuff to moms for long term storage. Got a small bit of progress toward setting up the turntable in the garage for analog playback over the Klipsch La Scala's.
Nikki is nearly done with stripping and repainting her Trek bike! Looking great...
Loaded up the family for ice cream - supposed to be free cone day at Dairy Queen but the lines were too long. Russell Stover serves Blue Bell ice cream and with the current Listeria scandal, they aren't serving ice cream. So off to A&W for root beer floats!
Kids rode bikes all day up to the school and back and up again. They sure like bike riding... Finally finding some freedom and empowerment.
Dominick came over tonight to visit Hunter - without parent! Rode his bike all the way up here - nearly a mile from his house. They watched some movie and Nikki took them back home.
Several calls on the CBR's - mostly broke folks trying to jaw me down but two real people who'll be over tomorrow to check out the bikes...
Speaking of bikes, Mason, the youngest, made a great YouTube video about why to wear a helmet when riding a bike! Helps him complete his Cub Scout Bicycle Pin!
Found out the times for Rich's wake and service. Alec will get to drive up to Chicago with his great Aunt and Uncle - I'll run up on near saddlesore pace to crash the wake on the FJR. Good way to memorialize Rich - a solid 1k ride.
Today was a good day.
