We get a little anxious when the sun shines too much. Also this rain is a good reason to take one more day off after the bike race and my calves are thanking me. ]]></description>

Here is a new Web site you all should bookmark: www.weedwar.org. It is maintained by Citizens Against Noxious Weeds Invading the North (CANWIN). I bet you didn't even know this was Alaska Invasive Weeds Awareness Week. This site will not only tell you all about that, Gov. Palin's proclamation and all, but has pictures and descriptions of the invasive weeds each and every one of us needs to be aware of. Hats off to Troy and Lori Zaumseil who started the 501(c)(3) non-profit group.]]></description>
