Meet Blue

It's just not summer in the city without Blue... (my bicycle)

Friday my car was in the shop & I missed my bus to work so I ended up taking a vacation day... & it was everything a vacation should be. Sunshine, lovely friends, & fresh air. It refreshes the soul a bit. Blue was finally all fixed up & begging to be taken all over town. Plus Lena just returned from a trip to Europe, I can't think of any better way to spend a Friday. Can you?

We headed over to Lawrenceville (5 miles), chatted with friends, then made our way home through the Strip District. (our market area... not strip clubs, I promise) Stopped in Salem's middle eastern market for lunch. YUM and a half! Through downtown & then the jail trail. By the end my legs were sore, it's been a while since Blue & I have had a journey like that. And my ass was killing me! Bike seats take some readjusting. Oye. But it's really a small price to pay for such a lovely day.
