And the waitress melted on the spot.
No pictures today, they're a royal pain in the you know what.
No chronological ride report either, my rides are repetitive and boring for all but myself.
I did not rule out anecdotes though!
I'm working 40 hour weeks for a while in my position as a relief Courier so my riding is limited to mostly on the weekends. I try to give my bride a good amount of my time also.
Today I slipped out just after breakfast on my Tour Easy with the intention of meeting her for lunch someplace. We do this a lot. I can ride and we can still dine out together, at least as long as her health still allows her to drive her hand control equipped car. I called her once I got to a point where I was about 10 minutes from the Diner that we frequent and informed her as to where I was so she could drive to the Diner and meet me for our lunch.
Arriving first, I secured a table and ordered a coffee for myself and a tall glass of water and a short glass of water from the hostess. Our waitress came up to the table and asked if I was expecting a lot of company for lunch since I had ordered three drinks. I said I was just expecting my bride and proceeded to stick a fistful of fresh picked daisies into the short glass of water.....at which point the waitress melted. My bride arrived a minute or so later, saw the flowers, and smiled. We had a very nice lunch with tons of attention from all the waitresses.
After lunch we left the flowers for June, our waitress. She smiled.
I got in a very leisurely 30 miles for the day. I smiled.
