The sky as I dropped the boys at school.

Poor poor Lauby is not doing great this series. One of the few Americans in Modus since it is played in England.

I got some stuff done around the house then got myself ready and went on a bike ride. I had mapped the route prior and it looked to be about 15 miles. Much of it was on very straight roads. And as I rode I saw moose tracks along the roadside.

Then suddenly there was the moose about 20 feet off the road. It was the size of a stubby horse, not as long but as tall. It saw me and stared a moment before my movement scared it off and it ran into the forest.

Nearing mid point of the ride I had turned south and into the wind.

My tech shirts from running races are great for the uber bright colors which help make me stand out to the various vehicles.

Headed back east towards home Mt Spokane is the mountain. It really was kind of amazing to me that each time I crossed the highways I managed to do so without having to stop my bike. The traffic magically cleared so I was able to cross the 2 four times and the 395 twice. This is a pretty unheard of series of crossings as there is almost ALWAYS too much traffic for such things to happen.

The ride stats.

It was really quite badass that I rode a different route today and it ended up the exact same distance as my ride on Tuesday. 15.16 miles only this one took me 3 minutes longer due to the extra 500+ feet of elevation gain. At least they were gradual inclines and not super steep ones.

Worked on my dailies mid day while fiddling with the LORA 32 V4, which is fighting me in programming it.

I had gone up to the garden shed to pull out the tiller when I got a call from the STEM teacher that R wasn't feeling good. I went and picked him up early and he was pretty worse for wear. He had been feeling like I had the prior afternoon, cold, shakes, aching, super tired. He fell asleep in numerous classes over the day and I am rather surprised no teacher said, "you don't look too good" and had me come get him...

Got him home and he crashed out fast in his room. @stryeyz was home early as we had a session to go to later and when she checked on him he was at the tail end of a "night terror" type of waking dream. Took him a bit to come out of it. After more sleep he ended up feeling markedly better and managed to eat some dinner.

@stryeyz had bible study for the evening and I got crabs printing for R. The first test came out great so I set the plate of 9 to print. Woke up today at 3am/3:30am and the printer had borked. Ended up being a stray strand kept causing it to error. They finally finished printing this morning.

Today I get the boys to school in a couple hours, will run to store this morning, I wish Amazon would ship USPS more often as they deliver WAY earlier than their drivers, will likely get in another ride, get dailies done, get R's stuff prepped for Wrestling tournament tomorrow, get the tiller out and ready, then will hook up the trailer this evening for a grain run in the morning before the tournament which I will need to spread some in the greenhouse before tilling.
