On our bike ride today as we were rounding our way around Lake Harriet and coming home Tyler caught the edge of the trail and crashed on his bike, right in front of me. I then slammed on my brakes trying to not run into or over him and went completely over my handlebars. We both got scrapped up and are nursing some significant road rash. Both of our helmets will need to be replaced. Glad we are super consistent about wearing our helmets. But we are okay and will heal up just fine.

Serene and pretty.

It was a perfect day for a 9.2 mile kayak down the Mississippi from Grand Rapids.

We were going with the current so you could paddle as much as you wished, and then take a break and still float right down the river.
