Apparently a holiday of some sort? Not sure if I still get extra pay for working it any more.

Still not sleeping. C'mon espresso, lets get this day moving.

On the positive side, wife made scones yesterday so I have those for breakfast. God damn does that woman have a gift for baking.

 

[eric strt6]

I wish we were closer to our camp in Maine.

Espresso consumed. Off for a ride. The meter of therms indicates 60 units of F.

Glad wifey and I did a high country ride Saturday. With some of those forecast numbers, that might be it for the year.

Hello all.

Today I exercise and eat for science: wearing ye olde CGM sensor for 10 days, and today's experiment is to replicate what one of my Twitter buddies reported caused a glucose spike in her. That'd be morning exercise (so I did a Power Zone 30 minute ride from 8:08-8:38) and then cheese. Said cheese is awaiting my consumption at 9:08.

Science yo

Sensor in my arm.

So far no glucose bump with the fairly vigorous Pelotoning.

Cheeses await me. That'd be mascarpone, a Sonoma Creamery brie-like thing, and some mozzarella.

i had waffles.

delicious.

7ish mile MTB ride with the wife this morning, and her noob friend tagged along. 10-12 miles would have been better but said noob wants to end rides as quickly as possible. Wife is now grumpy about that.

I told wife we need to go to that place alone next time so we can spend four hours exploring/getting lost.

As soon as they can cram superconducting magnetic coils inside them. Might have some undesirable interactions with the keys in your pocket.

Crazy winds last night, sunny now, time to go cut trees.

Here. Working in garage finishing rebuild of drawer for Haley's dresser. Garage reorganizing almost done so that Wifey gets her side back. Added two shelves and the bikes are now hanging such that I done have to put them together every time I use them. Nice little addition. Got a whole bunch of stuff down to the basement and into the rafters, so even though I lost my parking spot, I got a while bunch of useable space and storage for my new tools.

No plans for today. I probably should got check my emails, but fuck that shit.

 

[jonKranked]

15 miles ride. Managed to be fast today. Have some hub gremlins apparently. Passed a field of sunflowers on way home. I was greeted by my son excitedly showing me his first loose tooth. Hot dogs, mac salad, and a stone ipa for lunch. Hot tub and deck / yard beers this afternoon. Pizza and wings for dinner. Tomorrow is the boys first day of kindergarten.

There is research into very low field MRI that runs off of 120V. Needs lots of signal massaging to be not all noise.

even though I lost my parking spot,

We know how to fix this! New house time yo

Nah. Forester works nicely from the driveway and doesn't fit in the garage with the box. I'm only really concerned about ease of getting into/out of the car with the snow, so... not an issue.

 

[jstuhlman]

16 miles and 3000' in the hills in the books. finished with creek beers. kicked my ass in the good kind of way.

 

[iRider]

Rode after work (no holiday here).
Because of Covid cases rising they implemented new, stricter rules. Now only 50 instead of 100 people can be gathered and bars/nightclubs/etc. are only allowed to hold open until 24:00 instead of 2:00.

 

[jonKranked]

Edit/note: the tomato, jalapenos, and bell pepper were from the garden

 

[rideit]

Absolutely puking snow here.
hope it puts our local fires out...

Forecast just upgraded for here to up to 19", centered around RMNP.

We have entry tickets for RMNP for Thursday! I think we'll be taking the Land Cruiser up to Fraser, not the minivan… Will be a cozy winter escape instead of a summer-y hiking one.

 

[rideit]

Supposed to be a low of 18, with 40mph winds.
I better drain the RV tomorrow.

 

[eric strt6]

too effing smoky plus stupid hot 111* out to even think about a bike ride or run. The visibility in the smoke is about 1.5 miles. So instead I got in an hour of weight lifting. tomorrow I will try and get off my ass and spend an hour on the elliptical or on the bike on the fluid trainer for some good cardio

 

[boostindoubles]

Had 40 mph wind all day. Crazy dust and smoke storm. Zero visibility for hours. In the chaos some random fires locally burned some significant stuff, including a railroad bridge over a river and the local Greenway foundation office and playground. Out in the basin the highways were a slaughterhouse. I heard there are wrecks strung out for miles near Moses Lake and Lind on 90 and 395.

Looks like all of Eastern Washington caught fire today. Fuck. Stay safe.

It's bad

Babb - Malden fire 90% contained Monday, burning over 15,000 acres

Residents of Malden and Pine City will be allowed back into their towns on Wednesday to assess the wildfire damage to their homes and community.

I am happy that it could not bother me the least. These days I do my own drinking no need to hit a bar for that. Btw I finally got back on the bike too for a nice solo ride.

That was fucking terrible yesterday. They were out cutting alfalfa in the field across the street all day yesterday, those guys must have been miserable.
