It has been six weeks since the 11-day Denver to Minneapolis
bicycle ride and two weeks since Grandma’s Marathon. That was all a little too much but well worth the
effort. Many pains still
exist. I still do not have full
feeling in the outer parts of my hands, I feel fatigued, slight right knee
twinge, and my painful left ankle is almost twice the size of the right
ankle. It is best to give it
time, although I want to bike to work. Not for the sake of riding but to save miles on the car.
I will be getting up early tomorrow. My son starts his new job. He departs MSP airport at 6:30 AM on
his way to Atlanta. It is easier
to give him a ride, even though parking is reimbursed. It just adds 15 or more minutes to park and then get the
ride to the airport. He returns on
Thursday, late. This same routine
will continue through the next few months. This is exciting, but it is a little daunting. I am so proud of him!
On another front, I shipped my Nikon D600 back to the
factory. While I was hopeful I
avoided the oil spots on the sensor issue, I was not so lucky. Fortunately, Nikon does a full repair
for free, including the shipping. I assume I am just out of the camera for the next few weeks. Before I sent the camera off for repairs,
I did get some good fireworks pictures.
I also purchased the pictures from Grandma’s. Some were pretty good. The finished picture was the tail of two
runners. I was spending money, and my son
looked like it was a walk…
Right now, I really need to find something to enjoy. The letdown of the bicycle ride ending and
the 30-year run at Grandma’s completion was greater than expected. What is next? I am not sure, but life is less fun right now!
