Sunday/Monday recap

Sunday morning woke up early to head off. First we had the bike race, then we had the trip to NY! You can read all about Keith's racing adventures in his blog. We did stop and do "our" cache since it was on the way to the bike race. Then to the race! It was not a sepctator friendly course at all! You were only able to get into the woods in 2 spots. 1 spot took you far away, the other took you in circles and coulnd't see many spots. Plus the course was SO very skinny it was hard to find spots to be able to stop and take pics without standing in the course, prickers, bugs and who knows what else! We stood in the woods for lap 1, then headed to the feed zone safe from everything but the sun. Salem gave daddy his bottle when he came through. He does good at that! Plus it lets me able to keep taking pictures. Kaden was happily playing in the sand oblivious to all the bottles that were being tossed his way. He ddn't even flinch when a couple hit him! Keith finished 5th place overall in the Open sport class. And they broke medals down into age group. So Keith won 2nd place in his age group! We had to wait quite a while for awards, but that's okay. Keith came away with a cool looking medal and I came away with a pretty severe sun burn on my back and shoulders! At 3:30 we were finally able to leave for NY! The drive was fine, nothing exciting. Kids were pretty well behaved. Kaden was...well Kaden was Kaden. Not happy with anything he brought to do. Oh well, we made it! Arrived in NY at 4pm Monday. Monday was a lazy day. Kids were glad to be out of the car. Grandma and Grandpa Snoop has a nice driveway for their scooters. Kaden and I had a game of Waffle ball, lol. Okay it was wiffle ball, but Kaden kept calling it waffle ball. I won! Keith and Homer spent breaking and unbreaking the wireless internet stuff.

Today we are heading out shortly to Howe Caverns. Should be prety cool to see! It's great weather out here. No bugs, no humidity! Great views with all the mountains!
