In Which I Finally Post Something

It has been brought to my attention that I'm not really blogging like I should be. So here's a blog post.

However, the problem is that I have nothing to post…really. I mean, I could post something about a book I’ve read, or a song I’ve heard, or something I’ve seen. The problem with that is that I have nothing of interest that I’ve been doing lately.

Sort of.

There’s always the bike ride. See, my sister and my bestest friend have this sort of annual bike ride to Troy thing, and they convinced me  (and one of my other sisters) to join. So on the first day of summer, [which reminds me: Happy Belated First Day of Summer!] we rode. And I’m finally going to post pictures. But due to my Internet paranoia, they won’t really have faces. J

 This is four of the five bikes. My dear sister owns the one all the way in the back, mine is the yellow, and my dear friend and her dear friend own the other two. My other dear sister owns the one not in the picture. But it’s her own fault, really, for parking her bike all that way from the rest of the group.

This is the swinging bridge, although you can’t really see it and those darling trees are blocking the river. Stop Number Four or so. The Kootenai Falls.

 See, here’s the river. Part of it. I should have gotten better pictures. I’m blaming the camera. (and the trees--were it not for them, I could have gotten a shot of the falls)

And…behold the reason for the trip.

What, you thought we rode all the way to Troy and back for exercise? Bonding time with friends, old and new? A chance to praise God for His glorious creation?

Well, those too. But mostly R Place ice cream. They have the best. They stuff their regular cones full, like, really full. I got a root beer float, though. Haven’t had one since the Awana Destination Unknown. J

And I’ll just tell you: if you plan on a 30-ish mile trip on your bicycle,

GET A COMFORTABLE SEAT.

Seriously. I can hardly sit down right now, in the aftermath of that hard plastic bruising my posterior. Well, I mean, I can, if the seat is comfortable enough.

So I suppose my ‘lesson’ for today is go out and enjoy the beautiful weather that is sure to not last. J I’m not a pessmist, I’m just saying.
