Well….with how hard the wind is blowing out here, I almost skipped riding this morning after getting out only a couple of hundred yards…but, I pushed on and got one ride in but it was brutal with a steady wind of over 15 out of the NE and gusting to 25 or so…I never go out when it’s like that so I wonder why I did it today? All I know is that my thighs were burning the entire way and there were times that I was all the way down to low gear on the big front sprocket just to keep moving forward and I was down to around 4 mph at times in places where I’m normally going 16…so it was a lot of work and I skipped the second ride….but, I did get the landing pad for the garbage bin cut into the yard and the blocks installed…looks pretty cool and the 3 x3 pad is just the right size for the bin…and the pattern looks cool, too…with red and grey blocks..and the dirt I took out filled the depression in the yard that has been bugging me for a while now so that worked out pretty cool…and all for about 13 bucks…but I am really sore right now and need to take a break…so the kitchen will get done tomorrow…and the painting will get done Friday….need to do the weed walk tomorrow, too, but I can hold off mowing until Sat….going to load the lawn up with the rest of the feed I have in the garage and then I’ll be done with the lawn for the year until the leaves start to fall….yeah, I could have said another busy day but I guess those are normal for me now…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
