Myre Big Island State Park Camping
We did sleep in the tent all night! Emma Blue was a little turd several times. She slept part of the night on my feet, which was not comfortable! I don't know if she's cold, scared, or just being a turd! lol But it was all good. We got up around 8:30am and took down camp right away. Then drove over to the shower building... first time it's been open for us this year! We went in as grimey campers and came out ready to go to church and see my parents for Mother's Day! Amazing! Though it did take a little longer to get the site taken down so I didn't get to wash my hair. First thing my mom said was that it smelled like a campfire! lol Ah well! Church and then out to lunch with my parents. Chinese Buffet... mmm. heheh Not really. But they did have crab legs, which I like very much! Spent the afternoon with them and then headed home to unpack. It was strange to start unpacking camping gear in our church clothes! lol

Riding to Church in The Valley
Distance = 26.90 miles
Time = 2.09.19
Max speed = 32.5 mph
The distance and time were there and back. I rode to church... and actually got there on time. Not something I regularly do when I drive! lol I brought some sweatpants and a t-shirt to wear while I was in church so I wouldn't have to be in my tights. I still hadn't recovered from my horrible day with Gail. So I sat toward the back and cried most of the service. Afterwards they generally have a pretty nice meal available. I spent some time in the office talking with my friend JJ about the G situation. She always makes me feel better. Then we went out and had a good amount of food. Enough to get my back home. I got changed again and made my way back home. Part of the route I took was on what in some places I've lived would be like a frontage or service road. I don't know what they're called here. But there's too much traffic. In one portion there was really no shoulder so I was holding up traffic. Yuck! I sat at one of the stop signs for a minute or so debating whether I had enough gumption to ride up Mulholland Drive. I didn't! lol So I just headed home. It was a pretty uneventful ride.... as uneventful as it can be with LA traffic. But it was nice to do rides 2 days in a row. It's good for getting my butt in shape for sitting. (= And I think it was nice for people at church to see me training since many of them have sponsored me!
