ESCORT MTN. BIKE RIDE

While my wife did a four-mile training run/walk around our local shopping mall, I rode alongside her on my mountain bike handing her the water bottle at her every beckoning.

Lined up at the mall, again, were several people standing in line to purchase new-model athletic shoes. Several police were in the area to control the growing crowd. What these people do is buy the shoes and then sell them at an inflated price. Maybe a handful of people actually keep to shoes for themselves. That, my friends, is capitalism at its best.

I thought it was rather pleasant during our ride/run, but my wife says that it was hot and muggy. She’s always right, you know. So please allow me to say that it was overcast and somewhat muggy, with the temperature holding steady in the mid-seventies. Scattered showers are forecast for this afternoon.

It’s time for some eggs with waffles that are smothered with fresh blueberries, walnuts and maple syrup. YUM!
