Taking a half day and going fly fishing for salmon, right after I wire up a new outlet for a garbage disposal.

Water levels are perfect, weather is great, hopefully the fish will be cooperative.

I will post picutres of what I cathc later--because I'm sure the fish I catch are going to be beasts.

Shoveling dirt. Yards and yards of dirt. French drains and flower beds and such. I call it my poor man's gym membership.

All three kids have a swim meet tomorrow morning that should run about 5-6 hours. Then we jump in the car and drive up to Sacramento (actually, I think it's Auburn) for middle daughter's 5 PM soccer game, and then spend the night and sit through 3 more games on Sunday. This is the 2nd Sunday out of the last three where they have played a triple-header on Sunday, and 5 games in the whole weekend. At least it is to be hot!

Weekend? What weekend?

I'm nursing a broken rib that prevents me from swimming or running, but I may be able to ride on the trainer.

I am on call to support a major software installation...from midnight tonight until 6am tomorrow.

I have a Bar Mitzvah to attend thereafter at 9:30am.

I have a graduation party for a niece and nephew at some point tomorrow afternoon.

Thanks for asking, though.

Saturday: World Famous Mud Run
Sunday: Father's Days guilt free ride/run brick. Possibly bust out the smoker and do up some ribs and a whole chicken. wash bikes while watching the smoker and drink a few of Mr. Adams' finest summer time offerings. Or whatever my wife has planned.

As I have the last few Fridays, I will be leaving a bit early to go do some general yard maintenance (mowing etc) and P90x. Saturday my son has a kickball game in the morning, then I will continue the replanting my front landscape, then P90x. Wife is taking me out on Saturday night going to places unknown (I think I got her a ripping good Mother's Day present - for the first time I got my parents to agree to watch the kids overnight so we are heading upstate to see Dave Matthews and spend the night in a B&B - so I think she is trying to match me with something cool, so we'll see). Sunday we are going to a Long Island Ducks minor league baseball game with my parents and sisters family as we have for the past few years (I hope it is a better, shorter game than the last one I went too which looked like two middle school teams playing) and then back to my parents for a little bbq action.

Last year I was putting in some flower beds, putting in a drain pipe so I could cover the ditch in front of our house, back filling around the house where it had settled, filling in a bunch of other places around the yard that had settled after construction. All told I bought over 40 yards of dirt from Spring through fall that I had to move around once it was delivered.

P90X, pffffttt. Buy some dirt.

Heading to Ottawa in about an hour with Mrs. Quads to celebrate the job offer I received today.

Coming home tomorrow and having a cookout at our place - which is on the water w/ a Waverunner and an incredible forecast

Waking up Sunday morning and going skeet shooting, then back to the aforementioned lake and Waverunner.

School crap.
Hopefully either a ride or swim with the wife tomorrow morning.

Put off housekeeping for the past eight weeks due to tri training.

Race over, so now I must clean my house. One good thing: I can drink beer while cleaning. Can't do that on the bike!

Hanging out by the chiminea tonight with cocktails.
Long run tomorrow, some work around the house, hanging by the pool with cocktails. Pitching the tent in the backyard to sleep out with wife and dogs.
Long ride Sunday, hanging by the pool with cocktails. Unless I get a better Father's Day offer.
All weekend, enjoying perfect weather here in SE PA. Upper 70s-low 80s, sunny with no humidity.

High Cliff? If so, I'll be handing out water at the aid station on Lakeshore Drive at the ~15 mile and ~30 mile mark of the bike. Best of luck to you.

Went mountain biking this morning, picked up a new road bike this afternoon.
Tomorrow will bring volunteering at a Tri followed by a nice road ride and then a relaxing dinner with the little lady.
Sunday morning road ride with friends then headed off to a father's day bbq. It will be a fantastic weekend.
