THE GOOD....
When last I posted we were on our way out of town for a weekend with the Grandparents and Uncle Dan, Aunt "Gia" (Gina) and Cousin Queen of the Known World Farah. We had a great time even though the weather was a bit fussy on Saturday. We got poured on at the Farmers Market, but made up for it by getting a tour of the Great Barrington Fire Station - where the monkey & his cuz got to climb into one of the firetrucks (AWESOME). Sunday's weather was much better and we got out to a park-playground and even made a stop at the outlet mall on the way home. This was the beginning of a BIG FAMILY week because on Thursday Phancy (The Grandparents - Phil & Nancy) came to Boston/Cambridge for Gia's graduation from Harvards Kennedy School - where we got to enjoy a Big Family Party at the Red Fez in the South End, A Graduation Speech by JK Rowling - which was televised for those of us who didn't get tickets for the actual graduation (graduates only get 2) - Another Family dinner on Friday at Pepper Sky Thai Sensation (one of our favorite places for TakeOut) - SWIMMING at the New Marriot's Pool - the lil Monkey got to go a couple of times. And just lots and lots of playing with Grandma, Grandpa et al.
THE BAD -
When we got home from the Shire weekend - Jeff our upstairs neighbor & landlord met us at the door to tell us that he had spent the morning getting the mountain bike i had found into PERFECT running order and that with the new front tire it rode like a dream. This was the second "salvaged" bike that he had generously spent time fixing up for me. The first one I got last year from the police auction, but when we got it rideable I realized it was about an inch too long for me and not comfortable (or safe) for me to ride. So this second bright yellow univega was going to be my summer ride. Unfortunatly - when Jeff went to put his daughter down for her nap - Someone came into our yard and stole BOTH the bicycles that he had just been working on. So the too big mountain bike and the univega were gone....
THE Beautiful-
Since two bikes were stolen and we have renters insurance.... I now have a new beautiful baby...
A used K2 Bayside -- comfort style hybrid. It fits me and I really like riding it!!!!
