I was just out in the yard, getting ready to grill the traditional burgers and dogs, when I looked at out little apple tree. This tree has given us a maximum of half a dozen apples a year in the dozen years we've had it. This year it's got DOZENS of little apple-ettes!
One of the songs is a medley of WWII-era tunes, including the following. I'll make it a long-distance dedication to you and rjones28

The next KCB concert theme is patriotic music (is there anything more American than KCB?)
One of the songs is a medley of WWII-era tunes, including the following. I'll make it a long-distance dedication to you and rjones28

First stop: allowing the bike to channel some power and luck through this modestly-sized crystal

I usually pack more than this on a charity ride with full feed tables every 15 miles. I hope I can last two days without a kitchen sink.

Already one trip to HD. Minor stuttering and some chin scratching. 
You'll see.

Headed home from a morning in Austin. Too hot here. Hope to squeeze in a ride after I get home, otherwise this will be the first month in quite a while that I missed my goal, which is a modest 500 miles and 30,000 feet.

touché! The quickest way for me to end my complaining about California weather is to go almost anywhere else. I would have to ride at the middle of the night here. And then I’d probably get run over.
