Friday Project

A couple friends and I shared the cost of a Power Rake/Thatcher on Friday and we each spent the day chasing the thing around our respective lawns and then raking up the aftermath. Bek helped out with the raking portion and I really appreciated her being out there. Raking grass is almost as bad as shoveling snow and both have heart attack written all over them.

I made use of my motorcycle ramp to get the grass into the back of the truck using the wheel barrel and I was fortunate with the disposal because Wyatt's neighbor let me use his composting pit. 

Bek and I were lucky the fashion police didn't stop by because we both would have been ticketed. 

Single Speed Commuter

I broke a spoke on my multi-speed bike a little over a week ago, so I've been riding my newly acquired single speed cross bike to and from work. I was a little hesitant at first, but I'm really starting to enjoy the spinning on the flats and the cranking on the hills. I may even put some road tires on it for a smoother ride?

Prom Night

Saturday was Prom night for Bek and all of her Senior classmates. Her and a friend went to dinner and then to the Tacoma Convention Center for a little dancing, snacking and having fun with other friends.

and just being the cool person she is. 

Grease

Bek performed in Grease last week for her last High School play and she played the part of Patty Simcox to the tee. Susan and I went to 3 out of 4 shows and the last one is always the best because the kids throw some improv in and really the crowd laughing. This was by far the best play the school has performed in a long time. 

Patty herself would be proud. 

Getting fresh with Danny.

Getting down with Eugene 

and getting hugs from her Aunt Janet and Judith.
