oooof

So far, my blog has been prettty lame. I will do my best to hit it once a week. Especially considering I am absolutely obsessed with Uncle Crappy, I could post my own stuff, you'd think.
(back to previous post, I have never been good at keeping any kind of a journal)

TNT update...we're taking at least a week off training. I got the Boop's righteous cold and my head and right butt cheek are literally FULL of antibiotics. I reallly miss going on rides. I am pretty sure I'm addicted!
Just in case you're counting, we both have raised about $2000 each of the total $3400 we need to raise for the ride. A little over half way there, not bad. It's really like having a second job...

Training at least 10 hours a week and working on fundraising, too. Oh, it is like a 2nd job, a part time job but a really cool 2nd job!

Happy Monday!

Who knew that Pittsburgh is a cool, interesting and engaging city? I just spent a long weekend there & it was really a lot of fun! Good brew pubs, good food, fun shops....

The Andy Warhol Museum is stellar! I'm not sure I expected such a large museum. All of it was very nicely done. I was surprised at how large some if the Warhol's actually are. The "Elvis" with the gun was about 25 feet long, maybe longer! I even got to see a great series of the classic "Campbell's Soup" screens.

And, to top it off, Pittsburgh has a decent sized downtown area. Wow! Beautiful bridges, great stadiums and really impressive architecture. The William Penn Hotel is lovely.....go to Hotwire to get a great deal.

So, here's to friends, family and more long weekends investigating the sights in PGH.

for once I'm speechless

We'll see how this goes. I've never been good at keeping a journal. I'll get into the reasons later....maybe.

Why a blog? Why wouldn't I?
