Great Day Off

Today it was suppose to rain and then there was a chance of thunderstorms in the afternoon. We knew we were going to have a late start but then when we looked at the weather and Jim and Joybelle invited to stay one more day we decided to take them up on the offer. BEST IDEA EVER! We started the day with some delicious pancakes and then lounged for a bit. Next was the park with the dogs which was a blast. Jim, Shannon, and I went for a little run and my legs were so happy. It was such an amazingly liberating feeling to run as fast as I could. I guess I am a simple person but it really was great. After the run we played with the dogs in the park for a while and then came home and lounged a bit more. The day culminated later that afternoon when we went to a pizza buffet and then went to see Inception.
When we returned Jim got out some recumbent bikes for us to try out. They were a lot of fun but I think Shannon was a little scared of them (especially when I was in the front of the tandem steering us around the neighborhood...). was an amazing break from the paddle fever and we are both very grateful for yet another great stop on our long journey.
