I'm sure you're one of those sleek, fast guys who whiz by in packs, that I alway see. My only satisfaction is that, while my son's bum foot has kept him from running, he's ridden the loop a couple of times in the past couple of weeks. He's so strong, but they whip his butt too!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4266182378025878077.post-6488770595145506862009-03-19T21:54:00.000-04:002009-03-19T21:54:00.000-04:00beautiful!I'll take petit poison #5 dark intensity...beautiful!<BR/><BR/>I'll take petit poison #5 dark intensity and the lilac-y one. thanks bunches!<BR/><BR/>btw, nice to see another container store person. :-)kippihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05346284045882651761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4266182378025878077.post-28225654191142518292009-03-19T12:38:00.000-04:002009-03-19T12:38:00.000-04:00Loren, I hope you and your little bundles will be ...Loren, I hope you and your little bundles will be very happy together (never taken me out for a picnic).<BR/><BR/>Sharon, good loop. We do a 6:30 Wednesday morning ride that takes Military from Lorcom to 26th Street, climb that up to Marymount parking lot, then down Glebe to old glebe/military, then turn right and climb up 35th street up to the Country Club, repeat descent then do 35th street again but this time turning left up Vermont St. which takes you to the Country club along one of their fairways, with an unpleasantly steep final pitch. repeat descent one more time but go back and do 26th street again. It's called the "HON" ("Hell/Hills Of North" Arlington). These are basically 4 4-minute climbs. <BR/>Another loop people do is to do Military to Glebe, then out Williamsburg then back on Little Falls/Yorktown, which if I have this right, will bring you under Glebe and out at the Marymount parking lot on 26th street. <BR/><BR/>Later in the year, they will probably do a ride from Contes on Tuesday Evenings that does some form of the Military/Williamsburg loop.Scott T.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02057466019736735862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4266182378025878077.post-57782168259373762602009-03-18T17:56:00.000-04:002009-03-18T17:56:00.000-04:00Sharon, I'm glad you got out today.

I saw lots of righteous indignation, a lot of it fairly well-deserved. The AIG thing is stirring up quite a bit of populist fervor.<BR/><BR/>Off to pick up from Hebrew school...Loren Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03960126704097428609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4266182378025878077.post-77931326805467717272009-03-18T17:35:00.000-04:002009-03-18T17:35:00.000-04:00Oooh, they look scrumptious!!!

I worked from home today just writing writing writing all day, but did manage to fit in a couple of "loops" on the bike (Lorcom/Glebe/old Glebe/Military/nellie Custus/Lorcom). Each loop is only a little over 6 miles, but it is a killer what with the steep hills. My quads are killing me! <BR/><BR/>I can't wait to see the finished product from all that lovely wool. I think I see what the allure is--the pics really captured the richness of the colors.<BR/><BR/>Hope you're well,<BR/><BR/>SAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4266182378025878077.post-3158735870315148492009-03-18T14:54:00.000-04:002009-03-18T14:54:00.000-04:00Can I just say, delicious!
