Day 21- Got your Fins?

Watching the World Body Surfing happening at the O-Side Pier this morning.

 Ladies in the water working it. Guys swoopin- in. And this was the ladies age 35 to 44 and men 45 to 54. Then I really was humbled when the men's 65 and older 'dudes ' took to the waves. Holy crap, what have I been doing with my time? I need to get in shape!

So I came home made a drink and went on a bike ride. I'll show them.  

Olympics over so perhaps I'll get some sleep before  midnight for a change. I know I could stream it, but I'm old- school and was kind of hoping for another bout of Bob Costas' pink eye. 


Anyway, congrats to all for becoming world class athletes. Hope every one of you transitions to a successful future...

Day 11- Brothers

I visited the big bro today. 

We bonded over the Olympics - watching volleyball.

Sport is a great way to spend time when communication is difficult. We can enjoy just being together without speaking. Except, in Reed fashion, cursing when the outcome is not favorable. 

Last month hanging with the bro- (FYI - the road burn on my face has healed.)

Spoke again with bother Bill, wishing him further B-Day enjoyment. He is planning a visit at the end of the month, so hooray, I will not need to bike to Texas. Looking forward to the forthcoming argument as to who owes whom for past sporting bets.

Of course, a sunset bike to the harbor was in order.

 Beautiful evening with wood smoke in the air...

Day 6 - Blood is Thicker than Wine (Guest Blogger RTR)

Our two nieces came up to visit yesterday.

Great day highlighted by conversation, beach walks, Pacific 333, fresh peach daiquiris, BBQ lobster & trash talk! 

These gals came to play. They are a force to be reckoned. 

Another beautiful day at the trailer court. What a blessing to be here. Two minute walk to the Harbor. Three to the beach. I appreciate my life and do not take it for granted. My wife works her arse off- well not all of it- to round out our days with the proper amount of wine. Thank You!

The kids are enjoying themselves in Vancouver, BC. as depicted. They are a joy to behold!
