We took a long weekend trip to Show Low, AZ this past weekend where Larry entered his first official mountain bike race. 35 miles in the White Mountains. His goal was to finish in around 5 hours, or just not be last. We left on Thursday afternoon and after a bit of road construction arrived at our cabin. It was a nice little two bedroom place with a little park nearby for E to play. We spent Friday going to Pinetop where we had a picnic lunch by the lake. We picked up Larry's race number then went home to have a big lasagna dinner! E and I dropped Larry off on Saturday morning for his ride. He called with about 11 miles to go so we hopped in the truck and headed toward the finish area. With Easton in his pack we only had to wait about 20 minutes for daddy to come across the finish. Just under 4 hours! Way to go honey! He ended up 21st out of 135 riders. The weather was just amazing and I even got to read by the fire with a cup of cocoa! We came home Sunday to a dead computer and have been trying to catch up ever since.

Welcome back to the world of the internet. Have you guys gotten a new computer yet, or is it on the weekend to do list?
PS. I think that one picture makes it look like E is double checking to make sure that Larry's bike is in tip top shape. Cute!
Yes, he was giving dad's bike one last check. Did you notice the name on the inside of the rims?
Time for a Mac!
