Why we watch the Tour de France...

We hope you all had a great weekend! Moving right along, and July's almost over...

Gary left for Vermont on Thursday night for one last touch on the Pashby deck - and more importantly the deck railing - before they have tons of people up in a couple of weeks. I stayed behind to run the Osterville Free Library road race (4.12 miles) Saturday morning and to celebrate my friend Nancy's baby shower. Then we both drove from different directions to Quechee, Vermont, to meet up with best friend Pete and fam who's in town from Colorado! Such a great time of cooking big meals and lounging on the deck, overlooking the mountains!

Things are good on the homefront. We both are silly with work right now, but we're also thoroughly enjoying the Tour de France every night! The riders are amazing, but we probably watch it equally for the incredible scenery and outlandish fans!



Seems like every weekend is booked up now through early September, but all good stuff and a lot of it is right here at home. We really need to gear up for a big hiking/camping weekend in the early (and all through) fall!

Enjoy the end of the month!
