Dennis and the giant dragonfly. I tried to get it in the reflection of his glasses but it didn't work.
Today we had 3 teams going. 1 team stuccoing both houses and 2 teams working on the floors. It turned into a competition(nothing else on our trip has been competitive...). I would say our team won but both teams still had to go back and nail some stuff. The guys that actually know what they're doing all told us we did a great job and they didn't expect us to get so much done.
The ride into Maryville was hot for most people. It was so easy and many took their time. Me and two others booked it to the bike shop we were having dinner at. We did stop at a yard sale/junk store place. All clothing, 5 cents. Nothing good though. We chilled for a couple hours waiting for everyone and more importantly, dinner.
Yesterday the locals had a throwdown ride that we could join in on. Only 7 of us went. I guess we're that cool. The day was 95 degrees and cloudless, until we went on the ride. Pouring rain, thunder, lightning, cold. We were going to do 28 but cut it short. Hung out under a churches awning until it got a little better to ride back. A 12 mile ride still isn't bad.
Tomorrow is another 40 mile ride. Easy. How quickly we all think 40 miles is easy when we have 80's and 100+ to look forward to.
Stay Cool,
Dave

Boy, looking at the pictures, I am reminded why I love the South. The trees and foliage are just awesome. (The nighttime sounds are pretty cool too. Have you met any junebugs yet?) Too bad it has to come with all that humidity!
I missed the June 5th drop so I am going to try to get the Joby to you on the next one.
No junebugs but the cicadas are crazy in some parts. Millions and one area a week or so ago sounded like some horror movie.
Ooops! Someone else used my computer. The comment above was me.
