Weekend wrap-up: Danette and I were looking forward to a concert with my brother and friends on Saturday but – on a whim – decided to make a quick drive down to Blacksburg on Friday night to have dinner with the boys. I love impromptu…
Got a morning ride in. Hit the road around 6:45AM and it was already hot and oppressively humid. Ugh. Not sure if I was up for it this morning: just had no energy out there. But, whatever. I’ll be on vacation for a week starting…
