i slept in this morning. then did some homework before going on a bike ride. i managed to find a fun project on glaciers for my lesson plan homework assignment.
first mom, dad and i went to a pet fair. it mostly full of dogs and dog stuff, but there was some cat stuff. i have a big bag stuffed full of neat things for me, and LOTS of treat sample for mindy. she is going to be a very happy kitty.
then the three of us headed to the wabash. firs we went out to mineola (10 miles). then silver city (4 miles, 14). and lastly malvern (8 miles, 22). we stopped in each, ate our lunch/trail mix. then we turned around and went back to council bluffs where we started. mom and dad (mom mostly) gets EXTREMELY slow when she gets tired. i was tired too, but slowing down is stupid. the faster you pedal, the sooner you reach the end. and the sooner you reach the end, the sooner you can get off the bike. and after 44 miles, my butt really hurts. thankfully my knee braces worked well, so my knees don't hurt, and i don't think i re-injured them.
a gas station by the wabash sells some soda in glass bottles. if you've never had glass bottled soda, you MUST TRY IT!!!!! it is so fantastic! they had pepsi and orange fanta. i'm a coke person, not pepsi. but pepsi from glass is awesome. i bought 4 bottles. i can't wait to drink them!
this guy is awesome.
