rails and trails rider

I finally made it to Cornwall to take on the trail.  It was a  hard ride getting there! While getting my bike out of the garage I noticed the rear tire totally FLAT!  That was not a good thing!  So...I threw it on the bike rack ( I wish) ! Why is it so hard for me to lift the bike onto the rack?  Am I that weak? Anyhow, after a few choice cuss words the bike was on the rack and I drove out to the schwin repair in Cleona.  Of course, I had to drop it off and pick it up in a couple hours.  BUT I WANT IT NOW!  Ok Deb, calm down.  Off to Petsmart for Romeo. I picked up some food, gravel ..things you must have for cats.. and a few new toys....my mania was taking control! I needed to ride!  Then off to Walmart for people needs.  I sped home to unload everything and ate some lunch then my cell rang! Yai!  Back out to Cleona for the bike with the new tire! And I bought a pair of those swanky padded bike shorts.  I thought I deserved a treat for this running around.  Ahhhh...finally got my tosh onto the bike and pedaled into Lebanon!  I went up to Gretna then back into Lebanon. My seat was very appreciative of the new pants! It was a great ride! Well worth the running and waiting.  This was a happy day for me and my kittie.  He liked his new toys and is sitting on the window perch seat I bought him so he can keep me company while I'm on the computer!  What a guy!  I'm smiling!
