RowStrong Timbuk2!!!!!!!!!!

Keep up the pace, and most of all, enjoy the ride!

Hey, Pat, Chris, and James don't slow down on my account, I'm going for the cup, and don't give any handicap meters for age

You guys are pushing hard, my arms are tired, one fell off last night, put it back on with duct tape, I'm talking lots of trash, gonna get me in trouble, but I've been there before

I'm keeping an eye on Lisa coming up the ranks fast.

I wonder what our point spread is in Vegas, the viking outfit is intimidating, but I'm putting money on Cap'n Pat!

Okay, enough talk, I'm going rowing!

Don't put any bets on Me for the TEAM CUP..I am suffering with a "bad" elbow joint.I won't call it a tennis elbow..I don't play tennis.
The inflammation is going on and I wear a support on that joint to row.Got a tetanus shot yesterday and now both arms are sore.So my rowing is not major league..

Felt so good to take Sunday off. We were skunked fishing again (3rd time in a row; very unusual for me!), but I love getting away. Will probably continue to take at least one day off per week to prevent injuries.

We had our first snow last night (7200 feet) which is a reminder that the work outside needs to be done soon. We built a gazebo in June and still haven't sealed it for the winter. We were supposed to paint at least the south side of the house, too. Fall seems busier than the summer, but at least we don't have to work in the garden now.

Go Rockies! Go Broncos! Bad loss by Wyoming to CU last Saturday, but what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger.

Keep rowing strong, Timbuk2ers! Can't wait to see who gets the cup!

Whoa!

That's a lot of snow!

(Sorry, just couldn't resist!)

I think it's way too early to think about winning the cup, long long way to go yet!!

Pat- you have my sympathy with the elbow, this is my first pain free elbow competition is truly amazing!

As for the Viking - he feels strong but is probably more of a "Dilbert"

HiAltRowgal · Post by **HiAltRowgal** » September 22nd, 2009, 7:21 pm

Thankfully, we don't get a lot of snow each season here on the high plains, Lisa, but this is early even for a dusting. The strange thing is that I don't think we had a hard freeze because many of the flowers still look okay; the clouds must have kept enough heat in. I thought it would warm up more quickly & return to the Indian Summer weather right away, but not today. Hoping for good football weather by Saturday and good baseball weather for the Rockies game on Sunday!

Linda -- I miss the seasons! (Grew up in IL). It's our HOT season here now, and the fires and Santa Ana winds will be kicking up soon. Perversely, our growing season will be starting soon and I'm thinking what new plants to put in if I get some time. Enjoy your fall.

Pat -- Ouch!!! Take care of that elbow! We need our Cap'n whole and hearty!

I think I might take a rest day tomorrow. This pace is tough. I'm not a fast or really strong rower, so it's just time in the saddle. But, I might just row through all the Pixar films by the end of the challenge.
