• Erg, my allergies don't like this bad BC smoke #
• My lungs don't like being filled with teh #yegsmoke I felt asthmatic on my 10.5 km bike ride home. Plus my nose was running like a tap. #

• The old man next door (actually young compared to his Dad who also lives there) invited me on a fishing trip sometime. #
• Mmm, just had work birthday cake for my birthday at the end of the month. #
• Woo hoo! A fresh sheet of A&W coupons just came in the post! Although I do hate how they are not perforated. #

I took this picture of our backyard garden last night. Click to enlarge.

One of our Mammoth Sunflowers, without a head so far.

I was in a mountain bike race down in Terwilligar Park a while ago for the Corporate Challenge. There were three courses and three people on each team. One person did two laps of a non-technical course, one person did four laps of the same course, and I did three laps of a longer, more technical course. My course was about 14 km in total.

We won silver which I thought was pretty good. I was stuck behind a slow person for a while on one section of the course so I might have done a bit better. Oh well, it’s just for fun.
