Halloween Cross

We had a great cyclocross race at our favorite venue, Wheeler Farm today. We get to race there again tomorrow. Should be fun. I posted some more pictures of Eddy as well. He alternates between spunky ankle-biter and sweet puppy that only wants to sleep either in Gingers bed or in someones lap.

He is definitely keeping us on our toes, even at two in the morning!

Meet Eddy

Check out the newest Vremington! He's a mean 5 pounds and 8.5 weeks old.

Race #1

Race #1, Weber Co. fairgrounds, fun fast and dusty.

Race #2 today.......same bat time same bat channel.

Alaska

I made a quick visit to my (and Erik's) home state of Alaska last week. It rained and I got a sinus cold, but I had a great time. We were both lucky enough to grow up in that great state--mountains and rivers stretch as far as the eye can see and I know that we both did our best to take advantage of it while we could!
I got to see friends and family that I haven't see in a while-It was perfect. Enjoy the pictures.

Begining and Middle

For those of you who have seen our house over the past year, we have had a large "dirt embankment" in front of our house on the south slope of our yard. Well, I am proud to say, the mud hill is gone! Erik has worked super-hard and built a beautiful wooden wall. I fixed up the unsightly SW corner today with perennials and a rock garden. All that's left is to plant behind the wall! I am happy for our neighbors to have a much nicer sight to see! Here is a beginning picture (the wall is built already, i couldn't find any pictures without the wall) but you can see the ugly dirt corner, and a mid-way picture--I'll post the finished product when it's done! Oh--check out this picture of the Humming Bird Vine that grows on the light pole in our parking strip each year. I call it the snuffleupagus (sp?) tree.

Good Morning!

Good morning everyone. Here is a picture looking out the window into the backyard at our place. Looks nice, makes me want to stay home and sit in that chair!

Inauguration Day

Inauguration Day ride on new sweet ride today:) Go Salsa!!

side note: Just wanted to say thanks to everyone for a great weekend of riding. Revolution friends and teammates--great time at the sufferfest. I always look forward to seeing everyone ( and knowing that other people are as crazy as me!)
