today for my ride. Just a morning bout of procrastination.
I don't trust it not to rain so I'll adjust my route and (darnit!!) I'm going to do my 35 miles for day 35.
:)
Good morning all!
Good luck and my best wishes to our new friends, we know what it's like 'cause we were just there ourselves very recently and we'll do everything we can to help you through these very rough first few days. Believe me you're going to love it when you start to smell better (both ways), when things taste better, when you get extra time and extra energy (your spouse or significant other will appreciate some of that extra energy)..a few extra dollars every day doesn't hurt much either.

Are they getting so many e-mails that their server is overloading?
I hope so.
Anyway here's the note I tried to send:
Dear Sir,
As an American citizen and as a past member of the USAF I find the action taken by some unknown person at the Comissary at Peterson AFB in Colorado Springs to be highly objectionable.
A portrait of the current President of the United States is wholly appropriate to display on a day traditionally given to a celebration of American Presidents irregardless of political affiliation, religious conviction or racial heritage. The removal of the President's portrait is an act which besmirches the name of the Air Force which I so proudly served in my youth and is a black eye to service men of all ranks in general.
At no time is it appropriate to those in whom we trust our lives and our national security to show such a level of disrespect to the Office of the President of these United States. I hope you understand that this story has angered many thousands of citizens and hope that you will immediately explain or rectify this situation.
With regards and respect,
Arthur Wolf

SEMINOLE, Okla. —
A Shawnee man who was riding a bicycle died Tuesday after he was struck by a vehicle along SH 3, about three miles north of Seminole.
The Oklahoma Highway Patrol said Ardie Lewis, 50, died from multiple injuries at Integris Seminole Medical Center.
The accident occurred about 1:33 p.m. in Seminole County.
Lewis was riding a 10-speed bicycle northbound on the shoulder of the highway, the OHP said, as Bradley Walck, 56, Shawnee, was driving a 2006 Chevrolet northbound on SH 3.
The OHP said Walck was distracted inside his vehicle and drove onto the shoulder of the roadway. His vehicle struck the bicycle in the rear, ejecting Lewis about 90 feet, the OHP said.
Lewis suffered multiple injuries and was transported by Seminole Medicus EMS to the Seminole hospital, where he died, the OHP said. Walck was not injured, the patrol said.
Trooper Jim Parish of the Okfuskee County detachment investigated the accident.
