We had a really long and fun weekend. On Friday I took some friends up Mission Peak, but didn't get back home until after midnight. Saturday was supposed to be an easy day. But the idea of a hike to the beach became a trip to the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, but then morphed into a trip to the Alameda County Fair.
Thankfully we got there early. It was clear from the start that Megan wanted to ride every ride she could get onto, so a handful of tickets wasn't going to be enough. We got unlimited ride wristbands for ourselves and hit ride and after ride as Lori looked on in horror.
After lunch Lori went off to look at some of the exhibits while I watched Megan ride even more rides at the kids park. By that time I wasn't really in the mood for rides as I was pretty ill from all of the spinning. Megan quickly found a new friend, Samantha, and we spent the next three hours as a group with Megan, Sam, her mom and dad, and after a while, Lori.
On the way out Megan and I did a few more of the adult rides. One last run on the roller coaster. And other go on this flying one that I found started to put me to sleep. It wasn't really doing anything exciting for Megan either who I swear was telling herself a little story about how she was flying to this castle...
On Sunday I went for a 50K ride while Lori did some massive house cleaning. I came back in time to help out. We took the dogs to the dog park then got them baths. We also took the Furminator to Oso which has helped tremendously with his shedding. We then head home and I made dinner while Lori continued cleaning up. After dinner Megan and I went for a dip in the Jacuzzi.
By the end of the day on Sunday Lori and I were pretty wrecked. Now I need today just to recover!
