A week of strenuous bike rides in the growing summer heat and of work on the house of Radley's boat comes to a close on the eve of what should be a fine weekend. I'm hoping to surf, although not really believing too strongly that that will take place. I want to go on a long ride Sunday morning - thinking of doing 60 with the BnJ group - because I've noticed my stamina wanes towards the end of each ride and each week. Today at lunch I finally got a pedal wrench and spoke tightener, so it looks to be a bike-tuning evening in 511 tonight, probably with The Roches singing me along. This morning also proved productive from a furniture standpoint: I bit the bullet and ordered a dresser and nightstand from Cretens Brothers. They should be done in 3 to 6 weeks, then I will fight the battle of how to have them shipped down.
