There is no story behind this. I posted just because......they are cute kids!

What Jacob has been learning

This is Jacob's first attempt at tracing his letters. He can recognize all his ltters except for 2. He has also started to write his letters.

This is a video of some of the words Jacob can spell. He can also read these words. As you will soon see, Makenna starts screaming so I stopped recording. We have set up his computer log in as his name so he has to type his name every time he wants to use his computer. He is a very smart boy. Hope his school teachers can keep up with him.

Share the road.

I gotta get a little lead out: Please do me a favor and look out for bicyclists on the road today.!
I started to ride to and from work again, and I had a harrowing experience today with some JackHole in a big SUV. I was cranking big ring style down a small slope, cruising about 30 MPH (not bad for my getaway sticks!) when an SUV pulled up to turn right on a residential street. He started to slow, to heed to my right away, and then mashed the accelerator, got in front of me and turned right. I guess he did not realize that a bike cruising 30MPH comes up on you quick because I had to slam my breaks to not T-Bone him. I actually put my hand on the back of his SUV, still doing 20+ while he was turning. I thought I was going down. He never stopped.
Bikes have the right of way, end of story.
