Today I rode 30 miles for a total of 1,774 from home. There is a lot of the middle of nowhere in Canada. Their major east-west TransCanadian Highway is like a crappy four lane divided highway in Arkansas.

At work, I was going to leave a bit early and use some of my voluminous comp time that my boss says I need to use since I've been working so hard. Then he comes back and gives me an assignment (no hurry) which I lay aside. Next thing he copies me on an email which says, "Brian is working on that right now. Should have it soon." So I drop everything and work on it.




We went to the Knoxville Zoo last week, and spotted this sign. Apparently we are saving the red pandas. Who knew?





It was hot. So was she.





Another day, after the storm.
