Ouch

 I forgot to mention yesterday that I got a bee sting in Redmond.  No pictures of that, it's on my upper thigh so the bee seems to have hit my thigh and gotten squished up to my stomach.  It hurt at the time, and I couldn't get the stinger out.  This morning I have a nice red weal on that thigh and over to an old scar from 1980.  I doesn't diminish the ride, but it's a souvenir I can live without.

Back again.

 Well another 100k in the books.  I do RUSA 758 pretty regularly.  The downside is it's the Burke-Gilman / Sammamish River Trail / Marymoor Connector / East Lake Sammamish trail.  These are the busiest trail sections in the region.  They're off road, they're picturesque, they're also crowded.  I've ridden them at 5:30 am, it's dark, but a different experience.  So a good ride in general.


I forgot to mention, I went for a walk with Donna the other day.  You could see Mount Rainer on part of the walk.  That was nice too, I like walking/hiking with Donna.
