The weather has finally started warming up in the area less than 10 days before the Grand Fondo events. Riders can choose a 35 mile ride, a 62 mile ride, or a 100 mile ride. These riders are mostly local riders who are not going to have time to acclimate to the increased heat. TheContinue reading “Tulsa Tough Weather”

In less than two weeks, Tulsa will host a three day bicycle race known as Tulsa Tough. Saturday and Sunday feature road course events west and north of Tulsa, while downtown hosts closed course races for pros and elite amateurs on Friday and Saturday nights. What Tulsa Tough is known for is the River ParksContinue reading “Tulsa Tough”
Still cool and wet
Although we finally managed to have an 80 degree day Thursday, May is going to be the coolest May since I moved to Kansas 15 years ago. The last time it was this wet was in 2007, the year of the flood. Flooding is not likely this year, since the rivers are still low.
AFL round 11
The Greater Western Sydney Giants got to the airport to fly to Brisbane to play the Lions. Because the Giants had been in Melbourne 13 days earlier to play Richmond and the new 14 day quarantine for all people leaving Victoria, the Giants have to fly on game day. At least they are going northContinue reading “AFL round 11”
AFL hit by WuFlu
Victoria has had another outbreak of WuFlu, and as a result all of this round’s games will be played without fans. Some of the games will be played later in the week. This mostly affects interstate clubs coming into Victoria and Victorian clubs traveling interstate.

This post will be a start in correcting that deficiency. Coming up on the mid-point of the season, Geelong is third, twoContinue reading “Haven’t talked about the footy.”
More drying out
The garden and my driveway are finally drying out. Since this is my weekend, I got some strawberries and blueberries before I left work. The strawberries are huge and not that tasty, so I am dehydrating them. I got my second flush from my mushrooms, and will dehydrate them next week. I was wondering ifContinue reading “More drying out”
Drying out
After 10 consecutive days of rain, it will finally start drying out the next three days. Wednesday the 80 degree mark gets smashed as the high should be 85. Days have remained cool, but the nights have really warmed up last week.
Vacation
At Walmart, schedules are set three weeks in advance, dropping on Saturday. Since I have had the same schedule for the past three months, I don’t check right away. I checked my schedule last night and saw my vacation on it. Didn’t realise it was that close.
Pissing on your customers part 3
Most of the regional track meets were held last night. After work, I went and bought the local dailies, figuring the results would be in the papers. Both papers are printed in house, so this should have not been a problem. The good news was neither paper had any results. The bad news was theContinue reading “Pissing on your customers part 3”
