Where were we?

I guess some of you noticed that I haven't shown up here for a little while? Well, I'm back! Let me give you a brief report on where I've been.

We left Friday morning to go to Alabama to celebrate 50 years of marriage for Kedra's parents. It was very nice. We had a small reception for family members on Saturday, and then on Sunday we attended church with her parents. All of my children made it, so we spent a lot of nice time together. We came home last night.

While in Alabama I was able to ride and run, which was fun. I had 2 decent rides and a couple of good runs as well. On the rides I saw lots of interesting things and people and discovered some new routes that I will enjoy in the future.

I've decided to take technology "fasts" this summer - meaning that I did not take my computer with me and did not check email from Friday morning until last night. I feel enslaved to technology and am looking for some freedom. The fast went well. I missed a few things that were dependent upon timing, but that's OK. I've been preaching (literally) about being still and patience etc., saying the key is disconnecting from all the noise. I'm trying to practice what I preach.

OK, I am a little behind on things, so I better get going!
