Bike ride

I had a little adventure last night. In my feeble effort to stay in shape while I'm away from school, I went for a bike ride at about 7:30. You have go late in the evening because that's about the time the temperature gets to about 90 or so degrees (it's been about 110 during the day lately). The first issue I had was the tire pump in the house was broken, so I used someone else's personal bike. So I'm guessing I had rode maybe 3.5 miles and the front broke tire went flat on me. So I'm about 3 miles from home with a bike that doesn't work. Great. I found a place to stash it and ran home, then picked up our truck and went back and got the bike. So a bike ride turned into some cross training action.

Okay, so something about why I'm out here. Every Friday our hospitality center is closed. It is a day reserved for the community. We start the morning with our weekly meeting, where we talk about random things, mainly about operations at the building. We also talk about the guests that are staying in our transitional houses. After that, we have Mass, then lunch, and then some sort of activity. Today Margaret was in charge, and we went bowling. I think I had a lifetime high of 127. Next week I'm in charge of the activity, and I'm not quite sure what I'm going to do.
