Oh Ed, how much I've missed complaining about your skis. To be fair, nothing fell off of mine this time, but Jonis lost the speed reducer arm on his due to some vibration-loosened-bolts. And mine are still too short.

We went out to Martis Dam to check out the pavement, which turned out to be way too crappy for these wheels, but then we did it anyway. Got there just before dark, and finished well after dark, which was part of the problem with the crappy pavement since we couldn't see the parts where it went from crappy to super!crappy. But they close this road in a couple weeks so it'll be one of the better places that Jonis can headlamp-ski after work.

Training with Jonis on Donner Summit. Holy super sneaky awesomeness. How come I've never run here before? And how come we've never have races on it? (oh right, cause no one else lives here). Easily my new favorite Tahoe terrain. quickroute, starting south from the parking lot.

Waited up at most of the controls for Jonis, since there weren't streamers or anything and he was having trouble with it. But not for too long since the mosquitoes were ferocious. And, to my credit, none of the control locations I picked were still buried in snow.

My lime tree, which had a fairly rough winter, was for all intents and purposes completely dead looking by the end of the spring. The leaves that hadn't fallen off were brown and shriveled, and most of the branches were dried up too. I guess its not ideal growing conditions in the winter up here or something.

So I cut all the dead branches off so it would stop dropping crap on the floor, and all that was left was the trunk and a couple little stump branches. But I got too lazy to throw it out, stuck it in a corner and forgot about it, and then went on vacation for two months. I come back and the stupid thing is covered in new branches and green leaves. Without having been watered in well over two months.

Easy ride up around the mountain. There's still snow on the back side. Heh.

Feeling mostly back to normal today, in terms of altitude and hydration and Ed disease.
