Transition Day

In the grand tours they often have, “transition days.” These are the days in between mountain stages. For example, there are usually a few relatively flat days as the peloton travels from the Alps to the Pyrenees during the Tour de France. 

Tonight, after the Driveway (more on that later), we are heading home to Baton Rouge for the weekend. We have a wedding on Saturday night, and it gives us some nice time with family. But all day I just feel like I’m heading toward the trip home. There is nothing hard about it, but I know at the end of the day we’re getting in the car and driving for seven hours. It’s just a weird feeling.

JiBW2 is getting off to a slow start. This week has just felt somewhat condensed. I’ll have good opportunity for pictures this weekend with the baby ducks, the wedding, and being in a different place. 

The theory tonight is that Carrie is picking me up at the race and we’re heading out. That is, if I do the race. I really want to do it. It’s the course configuration where I first completed a race, so I do feel this configuration is good for me. I’m just nervous about having to leave the house and then get picked up to head straight out. Plus, I sort of have to travel home stinky. Though, if it keeps raining I’m not going to go out there. We’ll see.

Anyway, I’ll close with saying that I finally got our cruise pictures posted. Here’s a small sample. Enjoy!
