Fun times



Well, things have been busy. Naturally. Last night was a particularly fun event, RAGBRAI made it's way through the town of 14,000 that I live in. That means, at one point, my town surged to about 3 times it's normal size, with bicycle riders, campers, food vendors and yes, even porta potties, all in a matter of hours. Lots of libations were had.



My good friend Kara is great at bringing her camera along to document the fun times. Here we are together enjoying the live band (and some vodka lemonades)
Here is the site where some of the campers crashed for the night. I thank the Lord each and every night for an ACTUAL mattress and bedding. I really do. Here is a shot of "Bike World" where all of the bicycle vendors set up shot. It was a beautiful evening. And this, I think, is the absolute best shot of the whole event. It just seems to sum it up. Some fun "crap" happened! :)

Anyone see the resemblance?

Oh God, my child is channeling Slash. All of those years or huge bangs, leg warmers and neon clothes are coming back to haunt me! The karma gods are taking my love of the 80's and bringing it full circle with my baby girl!




4th of July

"The parade is coming, wonder how far I can inch out before Mom yells at me?"

Just hangin' with Grandma, waiting for the fireworks!










My baby girl is a little disgruntled that it's only 65 degrees in July!
