Cherry Fest 09er







Beautiful weekend at the Stevenson Compound for "Cherry Fest 09er" this past weekend. Got some good tractor time in mowing some of the meadow, sans sunscreen as dirt from the mowing coated me from head to toe. Saturday the sun broke through and as guest started arriving around 12, the picking began. Tons of rug rats, or would they be lawn rats in this instance? Picking was probably at an all time low due to the constant monitoring of the lawn rats. Fine food and beer as always, and we even managed to squeeze in some skeet shooting at dusk. Sunday was an "epic" road ride of 36 rolling miles and even a summit "hors categorie" at Yamhill Winery where the green jersey went to Bucker. Myself and LSmith brought up the rears. Then rain. And that was it, fantastic weekend, here's some pics and a link.

Gosh. I'm not sure how to say this. Are you wearing "manpris?"

they are pants on most people.

Hey! I think it's great! Our household is very supportive of differing viewpoints and ideas. Including...men's capris. Good for you!

Not to throw fuel on the fire, but I have neatly shaven legs as well, which indicate my dedication to cycling and sets me apart from your average run of the mill hispter / yupster.

I'm actually really jealous. Here in the midwest, I have to keep my manpris in the closet.

actually, Clint ardently defends manpris as more masculine than say, khaki shorts. And he's from hard-scrabble Flint, MI area

Man, looks like a blast. Sorry I was laid up with this creaky back (gaws). Next year, I promise! (Yeah, yeah...)
