Got in a short ride yesterday up here in Flower Mound, but plans for an early morning ride this morning were thwarted by cold and rain. To make matters worse, I've got only occasional internet access, since the place where I'm staying doesn't have wireless. (Yeah, I know...) On the plus side, The Daughter scored a career-high beam routine in the meet against Iowa State (which they lost), then drove from Ames to Iowa City, packed a bag, and went to the airport to catch her 5 a.m. flight to Dallas which was an hour late arriving. It was just as well, since we went to the wrong gate initially and would have otherwise been late meeting her. The rain's still falling and it's cold and windy - not quite what I was expecting.
The funeral was quite nice, as funerals go, and The Wife gave a very nice little memorial that included something that The Daughter had written. We will be here a couple more days to provide much-needed emotional support until we have to head back to New Orleans.
I wish I was half-way through a long ride on a warm summer day. Reality, however, is not even close.
