The neighboring town has declared the first weekly farmers' market of each month this summer as Bike to Market day, so I had to ride my bike to their market today. It's kind of a brutal ride with lots of up, some of it repeated. On the last climb I was going slowly enough that I was in danger of being passed by people walking up the hill. When I got to the market I had to sign in to get the tote bag that was to be my reward for the ride, and I got stuck half-way through writing my last name. I just couldn't remember how to spell it. I wanted to put in a J or something. An hour of hanging out at the market listening to music, taking pictures, and eating baked goods seemed to restore me to my senses and I rode home for a total of about 14 miles. I guess if I want to ride over the Cascades I should do a lot more of this sort of thing.

Got home just in time to shower before we had to pedal to the local theater for their version of Show Boat. The first act was good, but the second could have been dropped completely with no significant loss to story or musical experience.

When we got home I helped B with her latest project. And then I've been sitting here reading my friends list and facebook and the SU boards until I look at the clock and it's almost 3:30am.

I have a couple of job-related contacts to complete tomorrow. ECR.
