Visiting The Bricks

This morning was in the upper 40s and I am not equipped with the right clothing to stay warm while cycling at that temperature so I opted for an evening ride.  I had to squeeze the ride in before the church finance committee meeting that started at 6, so that's what happened!

I tried to improve some on a few segments, not that they matter, but it's something to do while getting a good work-out.  I was only able to get one personal record and a few second bests, so it wasn't all I had hoped for.  This evening I also encountered a few detours in the Prairie View Heights subdivision area as they continue to improve the roads over there. My phone mount broke when I went over a small bump and it went sliding across the road.  Fortunately no car ran over it before I could retrieve it!

I got to church about 5 minutes early. Tassi met me there with a change of clothes so that the other men wouldn't be in awe of my cycling outfit.  We had a good meeting and when it was adjourned I had to get ready for the ride home.  On the way out to the parking lot I took two photos of the memory walk bricks that honor my father and mother.  They were born 8 years and one week a part in September so it was nice to see the bricks and reflect on what they meant to me.


Jim Fry, my father, September 21, 1929 to December 12, 2011.

 


Marlene Fry, my mother, September 28, 1937 to October 16, 2015.

I made pretty good time going home but I didn't ride straight home so that I could bump my distance just a bit more.  I have three more days this week and I only need one more mile to meet my goal.  I'll save that for tomorrow!
