Is Easter Monday a thing? Even if it is not I am not working today! Woot! Well, I’m not working for “The Man” but I will be doing many chores for “Myself” today. After I am done pecking out this blog post I will put on my farming clothes and start tending to WLF, and the plants that I have killed. You may say that today WLF is Risen? You probably wouldn’t say that…
Yesterday was Sunday, and apparently it was some big religious day too? Anyway, Bonnie kindly took me and my bicycle to the Silver Comet Trail to meet up with a handful of like-minded (read “touched”) individuals to ride in very chilly weather. If you’ve learned anything about me in my fifteen years of blogging it’s that I am not a braggart, but I’m here to say that I fucking killed it yesterday — at least by my metrics. I covered thirty miles of riding in roughly an average speed of 16.8 mph. I’m too old and have always been too slow to ride professionally, no of that has changed, but this is the best I’ve ridden in a while — GODDAMN KNEE BE DAMNED! Oh, good thing I didn’t say that on Easter! The day was made even better sitting around post-ride and consuming delicious food and mimosas. My early rising and hard physical activity caught up with me however, and I was soundly asleep in bed no later than 8:00pm. I even slept “late” this morning, thirty minutes past Lowe’s opening hour of 6:00am!
The rest of my weekend was spent doing WLF chores, some of which I will have to correct today. 🤦ðŸ»â€â™‚ï¸ Today I am also going to try and make tripods out of sticks and twine; this ought to be interesting. In case you didn’t know, I was never a boy scout.
Tonight I’ll be attending the Moonlite Hash. Why when running is not an option? The weather will be perfect, and tonight’s ending is Bold Monk Brewing, a place I’ve not been to in some time.
Hope you had a happy and healthy Easter weekend.
Well poop, I have misplaced two sets of arm covers. I guess I’ll just have to go outside and be cold this morning. Harumph!
A little more fence work on Saturday. Of course, the left over piece of fence was a bit too short for its intended location, but I cobbled it together. I ran errands that evening and was going to bring home truck stop Mexican to Debbie, who was feeling puny after her J&J shot Friday, but they had closed early!!
I learned Tractor Supply was closed for Easter, so that’s on my list for Today. We did family Easter with one of Debbie’s nieces and all the children..
Had a chat last night with Randy Shafer, former USAC tech director, international commissaire and who was the official for the current world hour record. I picked his brain and he gave me things to think about. Nice to have that resource.

Good thing I was unable to convince Bonnie to stop at the Tractor Supply we passed by yesterday. 😂
Done with WLF chores, at least until I have to pull plants back inside before heading to the hash. 🙂
