Garden

(e:terry) and I worked on the garden for hours last Sunday and planted all of the botanical garden flowers we got.

It's like summer already. The backyard is a ton of work but I think I actually enjoyed it today. Call the gardening club, I'm an old man.

We were able to use a ton of our compost from the Farmer Pirates, who take our compost.

Skyride

Was awesome. We woke up at 8:30 (we were supposed to check in at 7:30), got to the park at 9, and rolled up just when the ride was leaving. Obviously if everyone did that it wouldn't work but it worked out for us.

The day before I volunteered and spray painted the markers on the road.

It was warm and not sunny. The ride was 26 miles long, and for the most part good.

I really hate the car culture slow rollers who stop at every stop sign and give way to every car. I'm not riding 26 miles with you clucking at me about yielding to cars, it's an event for building a bike culture.

View from the new Roswell building

The 9th floor of the new clinical science building has a pretty good view from the patio.

Too bad this is on the executive floor. I hope they let the patients up here.

Spring riding

Spring night rides are best rides.

Clean Air dinner

Last week was the clean air coalition dinner at the Hotel Lafayette. The Allen Street Consulting table went crazy with the raffle. (e:xandra) won an air purifier, we won the 50/50 and (e:Dianne) won a Coop gift certificate.

I love breadsticks.

Early mothers day at e:mike and e:libertad

We did mother's day early for Paul's mom since (e:mike) and (e:libertad) aren't here for this Sunday. We went to some seafoody restaurant in Hamburg called Lucia's on the lake.

I got to see some of the many napkin holders Mike and Dave bought.

And eat these amazing ice cream sandwiches (e:libertad) made.

and spent an hour talking about how we're all gonna die.

Stray guy :(

End of tax season party

We got (e:terry) back.

The only pictures I have of the party are the Newfie neighbor megafloofs and a drawing of the dog. The food was tasty and so is sleeping under (e:terry)'s desk.

Here's the flyer (e:xandra) came up with, pretty sweet.

Spring cleaning

(e:terry) and I spent four and a half hours cleaning the gutters and the windows in one(!) room. It was worth it if only for the fact that our yellow room looks so much nicer, but if we ever move I'm never living in a house this size again.

I didn't realize how grimy the windows were until I had was able to compare these cleaned ones to the schmutzige ones.

After we finished we walked with (e:paul) and (e:mike) who got back from the outlet mall.

Birdy birding

(e:terry) and I joined a birding group on facebook (yeah I know) and we've seen a ton of photos of cute little warblers posted. We rode our bikes through the cemetery to see if we could see any birds. Allegedly now is the best time to see them, as they're stopping on their migration north and there are no leaves on the trees.

Unfortunately I have no idea how to bird, so we only saw geese, ducks, robins and this furry woodchuck.

After we went to walk Midnight at my parents' house. We finished the day with dinner at Zaiqua on Delaware. It's a delicious Pakistani buffet with a ton of veggie options, and they give you a paneer fry. A little greasy but I'd go again.
