Yesterday was a bit warm, but today was a pretty comfortable day. I made the mistake of making the first time riding my bike a trip to play a sport, then have to ride home. Turned out alright, but I am pretty worn out. Forgot to get the padded shorts.

I also grilled some chicken for dinner yesterday, Jim. Had a friend of Cali's from work over for dinner, and her husband and son. It was a nice evening to be out on the patio. Attaching my kayaks to the under side of the deck really opened up the space back there. New grill works great as well.

I guess it's time for Monday again.

Spent the day at the lake again, but unfortunately didn't get much of anything done this weekend.



Had a great time despite the wind. My wife got owned by our 3-year-old at the beach, those of you with kids may find this humorous:

Good morning Connecticut!

Hopefully this rain will bring the humidity down a little.
Seems there's cooler air behind it.

I prefer to say I improved it.

I spent my day getting rained on while transplanting a dogwood tree in downtown New Haven. At least there was some decent scenery since we were at Yale.
