a few laps around San Vicente blvd. It has a nice easy 1.5k hill to it; climbing that actually feels more like skiing than the flat stuff, maybe because its just a little more resistance than flat rolling.

hot.

driving home last night (this morning) I saw a tractor trailer burning on the side of the road up in the mountains above grapevine. while this is somewhat normal around here, this one the fire had gotten past the cab and had the entire back trailer engulfed in a giant fireball, all that was left was the metal skeleton. It was on the other side of the road, and the flames were blowing across the median (~100ft) and onto the first couple lanes of my side. a good sized brush fire was going on both sides of the road.

up in tahoe for cousin bobby's wedding. ran with dad up the ski trails (royal gorge xc) behind the lodge to a nice open ridge, then over to the summit of Mt Disney.

kayak around the lake by the lodge. 50 minutes of easy wandering, and 9 minutes of dad saying "hey lets race around that rock on the far [windy] end of the lake and back." he won by a few boat lengths.
