Today was great. Nick, Chris L, Ethan, Matt, Jake, Ben, Anay, and Alex all came over for a "pool party." Cherry coke....trampolines...dolphins. Not really.
I'm glad everyone emerged relatively unscathed from the events in the pool, everyone except about 4 popped pool toys, a testament to the ferocity of the "swimming" that occurred. Burgers and hot dogs followed by root beer floats turned out to be a perfect combination when you throw in a pool, some basketball, and hot weather. We'll have to do it again.
Oh Nick left his underwear on the floor in my family room, theyre still lying there. Even the dog wont touch it... Its made that room feel not so family oriented anymore. They'll be there next time you come nicky:)
Today was punctuated by the news that George Hincapie had won his first tour de france stage in his 10 years since first starting the race. Wooohooo. I have the tape of the stage, and it is one I will hold on to for a while!
George got in a breakaway so that if he needed to help Lance he could drift back and be there for him. But the breakaway gained about 20 minutes on Lance and the peleton and Lance needed no help so he told George to go for the win, and boy did he ever. He dusted away all the other breakaway companions on the final climb, and won the hardest mountain stage of this year's tour by 6 seconds over the next rider, and over 5 minutes ahead of Lance!

Theyre so far back!

Speechless

Disbelief and exhaustion from what has been a magical season for Big Georgie
