Apr 7-18: Running, Riding, Easter, & Statue-to-Statue

I have managed to stay very busy. The challenges at work continue: lots to do, little time to do 'em, and so on. But, it is exciting and I always get to play with recent technology which I love to do. So, I can't complain too much. Easter was a ball. We went to Demopolis, AL and John had a great time:

Created with Admarket's flickrSLiDR. I had my second flat on my bike. This time it happened in Dempolis. Demopolis does NOT have tubes for my bike. So, today I bought 3 to keep in my gear bag. I am a bit concerned as the leak was in the same tire as last time which was not long ago. It also seemed to be in the same spot.
We saw Wicked recently. That was a blast. I never thought of the Wicked Witch's, you know from Oz, back story. Good musical and wonderful performances. Good musical and touching story.
I think I could say more if I blogged more often. This letting the data stack up, finds me brain dead after putting on the data here. I should blog more often and try to capture more about how my day went and what was in it.
Oh, that reminds me, the video below drew some chatter that just reminds me that we humans are a long damn way from figuring out how to live together peacefully and that there are still plenty of idiots in the world (on all sides of all arguments). Too bad and shameful.


Page with chatter.
Also found another running, cycling, blogger, Keep Moving Kate (& J.), from Birmingham this week thanks to Phedippidations. I recognize a lot of the scenery she posted. She also ran the Statue-to-Statue today. But, we exchanged comments via her blog. Nice blog, she has.
