MIni vacation
I'm leaving early tomorrow morning to take the bus to Seattle, and then the train to Salem.
I'm going to hang out at Steff and Jim's place for several days, and then do a long bike ride on Sunday. Jerry will join us on Friday or Saturday and ride with us on Sunday.
I'm really looking forward to this little break. I love that I have friends that I can say "Hey, I wanna come lounge around your house for days, do you mind?" Not only do they not mind, I think they'll be glad to have me, judging by the list of things Steff has for us to do. Ballet. Book club. Blackberries.
I've promised to attack the blackberries in her yard. It's in my best interest, as they are eating her grape vines, and I have a thing for fresh grapes. (By a thing I mean I think they were sent down from heaven just for me. Also, if it were possible I would eat nothing else. Sadly, I would starve most of the year.)
We may also do some running and biking and for sure we'll do a lot of laughing. Also, there will be eating, while Jim shows off his new smoker and his cooking skills.
I think I'll go to bed now, as I'm supposed to be getting up in six hours. I've packed my knitting and the iPod is charging. I'm set.
