I took pictures but apparently my camera ate them :(. It’s a shame because I got a nice one with the Sales guy with me and him in front of it! I’ll put pictures up with this post tomorrow.I really liked my half ton Chevy. It was a great little truck. When I graduated from […] more

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone. I managed to see Matt and drop off his cheesecake last night. He surprised me with my very own box of See’s candy (heart shaped!) and a box of truffles! Today I headed to San Francisco for another FPGBB performance (see earlier post for adventures last time!). This trip was uneventful. […] more

Enough doom and gloom and introspective dialog! It’s predicted to rain all week 🙁 (We need the rain desperately in CA so this is actually a very good thing). Footing is bad in the arena and visibility is too poor on the roads to ride, so no riding until this weekend. I have a conditioning ride scheduled […] more
