The line

This line in front of the Friendly Center Greensboro Apple store was maybe the longest line I stood in for a while. All in all about 1:45 from the time I arrived there until I finally walked out the door with the new iPhone4 in hand.

The cutiepies

Yup, the title says it all. This blogpost is about the 2 cutiepies in our house.

You have been warned

We noticed this warning sign a couple years ago when we were in Panama City Beach, Florida for the Ironman triathlon event there. Not surprisingly, we did not see any unattended kids running around in the coffee shop where this sign was posted.

XTERRA Tsali 2010

Decided this week to race XTERRA Tsali and went to Bryson City, NC for the weekend. Amy had to work and could not join me. I wasn't sure what to expect but mostly wanted it for training motivation anyway. The Santa Cruz Blur Carbon worked fantastic and I ended up with a very solid race.

The second transition of XTERRA Tsali was set up right near the MTB trail head of the Tsali Recreation Area.



Took this image for fun the day before the race and missed out to step on it the next day. Not because of performance though, but because I washed myself in the lake at the time.



This is where we swam.



The view from the Ridge Top Motel in Bryson City wasn't shabby.



The bike set up in T2 in the morning. Note the fine transition towel



Quite muddy after the race

New neighbors

Recently a new family moved into our neighborhood, or to be more specific, they actually moved into the birdhouse on our front porch. So far we have not seen a rent check or any other form of payment and we are holding our expectations very low along those lines.
They are very cute though.

Man and his friend

Last weekend we went to the beach in Litchfield by the Sea and Amy snapped this very nice image of Pete and I strutting on the beach. Pete though is not crazy about the water and long walks are not going to happen either. But he is so adorable and sweet.
