I've been slacking on my blogger duties lately. Please fogive me. Mary and I are currently at my parents house in Grand Forks. We've been here for the past week, and we leave to go back to Madison tomorrow. We close on our new house on Wednesday! It's the house in the previous post. We are quite excited. There is some other good news too.
The 2006 WCA cyclocross schedule is finally posted. Can you say 2006 WI State Cyclocross Champion?
Congratulations to Heathrow Abraham on her half ironman. 18 odd miles per hour is most impressive for 56 miles.
The Honorable Revenend Josh Lanning has a blog. Read about his hatred of Del Norte Ambulance, and his love affair with a certain German liqueur here. I also gave him a coveted spot in my "Other Blogs" section. Keep it updated Josh or I'll tell Charles.
We'll be getting our stuff from storage in the next couple weeks, so the postings will be more frequent. There's all sorts of stuff going on with our lives, so I'll have plenty of material to ramble on about.
Floyd Landis is the man.

Too Much Stuff for One Posting to Handle
Hello once again all. I've actually had many opprotunities to blog lately, but I've been too lazy. Here is the much abridged summary of the last month. If anyone wants a more detailed description of anything mentioned, let me know and I'll blog in detail.
Mary and I had an uneventful trip to Bismark for Andy's wedding. Scott showed us around Missoula and kicked my ass on a bike ride. Andy met us in Medora, ND for a great 37 mile ride in the badlands. The marriage of Becca and Andy was lovely. It was nice to see old friends and catch up on things. Home in Grand Forks was great. Several mornings were spent sleeping in late and watching the early rounds of Wimbledon. We spent close to a week in GF before heading to Madison, WI for the house hunt. Mary, Sampson, and I spent the 4th with Brian, Heathrow, and Ventoux at a doggy park on a lake. The poochies had fun. We were hooked up with buyer agent and she showed us 22 homes in 2 days. Mary and I decided on a beautiful 46 year old brick ranch in East Madison. We'll probably put in an offer in the next couple days. Here is a picture.
Right now we are in Valparaiso, IN at Mary's parents house. We've been here the entire weekend, and we'll probaly leave and go back to Madison for house stuff on Tuesday. I think Mary's folk's place is my favorite place on earth, and I'm not just saying that because they read my blog. It's so relaxing here. There's a beautiful porch overlooking woods with dozens of species of birds. There is always great food and great beer waiting. Mary did a sprint triathlon yesterday. She was really strong coming out of the water, and maintained second place through the bike, but faded to 4th overall during the run. She was second in her age group though. Her time was a blistering 1 hr 10 min 3 sec.
Tour, Wimbledon, World Cup, baseball. What's there to say. A mighty fine Sunday for sports.
