Mt. Ventoux

There's a kilometer to go on Mt. Ventoux and Armstrong is holding fast to Contador. The climb is very steep. Garate wins! Armstrong is solid in 3rd place overall. The Scheck brothers attempted to "gap" Lance and they failed.

Ist Couple of Days of Le Tour

The Tour is off to an interesting start. The Prologue took place in and around Monte Carlo. It was all very picturesque and technical. Today there was a streaking sprint finish and a Mark Cavendish victory. Columbia/High Road is a powerful team. They could be unstoppable. What do you think, Greg?

hello Friends!

Hope this finds you well. Tomorrow is Independence Day. Karen and I are enjoying a visit from Justin. He leaves tomorrow and will stop in Maize for a visit with Dan and Ashley. We'll miss having you around, Justin.
Tomorrow, I'd like to go back to the old neighborhood for the Collins Park 4th of July parade. It's fun and very low-key. In my opinion, it's the best neighborhood celebration in the City. For us, it's like going home, you know what I mean?
Have a happy and safe 4th!
P.S. Our dog hates the 4th.
