Rode 39.3 miles.



Not sure how much I'll be riding for the next week or so. We're closing on the house on Tuesday (9/24). That will take most of the day (walk thru ~ 1 to 1.5 hrs, then lunch with the realtor, then the actual signing). My wife says we should "dress up" for all this. I'm supposed to wear something other than shorts and a nice t-shirt for the privilege of handing over a BIG check? They should be the ones catering to me. My wife is like her mother -- raised in the "old Southern traditions". You know -- don't wear white after Labor Day, etc. She still has a hard time dressing casual when we go to a nice store (Belks, Dillards, etc) or many restaurants.
Anyway, we'll be at the house most of Wednesday (9/25) because the appliances are being delivered, the cable/internet person is coming, we're getting a quote for gutters and an electric roll up screen door for the garage, and I'm sure there something else happening that I forget. And I'm hoping the mailman will bring our lottery check so we can pay for all this stuff.
Maybe I can ride Thursday or Friday.
