Eventful weekend

A lot accomplished, a lot done.
It all began Saturday, 8AM ride with Paez, Darrel, Tony and Dave. Steady and easy was the pace. We started from the lakefront and headed to Groveland via montevista and headed west on pine island and turned north onto 33. Not even a mile onto 33 with a steady 20mph pace line, Paez behind me hits a rock and goes airborne send Darrel behind him to ride over Paez and crash as well. Fortunately they were able to walk and it appeared that nothing was fractured between the guys and their bikes. However they were pretty banged up and riding home wasn't even a thought for the two of them.
Tony, Dave and I decided just to backtrack home to get off the main road and take it pretty easy back to the lakefront. Our morale dropped from the event.
When I got home, yummy breakfast of chocolate chip waffles with the wifey. We then got ready to start our day together beginning with heading down to Orlando to the Asian market. Desiree wanted to pickup some sweet sticky rice and some spring rolls as her lunch. We then walked downtown publix to grab me a sub. The plan was to head down towards the science museum and draw out a sheet to have lunchin the park. We brought a frisbee and book with us to relax outside. I of course ended up taking a nap, while Desiree started a new book.
Afterwards, over to St Margaret Mary's for church and dinner at our favorite Vietnamese restaurant Pho 88. Or date day would continue with a movie at winter park village- "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo". The theatre was the craziest I have ever scene it. Both lines inside for the fandango kiosk were crowded as well as the concierge desk. Outside the like was extended out past Johnny rockets. Everybody inline was commenting on how busy it was and that they have never seen it like this. I guess a lot of the big movies we starting around 19:00. The movie was good, however pretty disturbing. Not recommended for a first date unless you're into that sort of thing. The movie was originally in Swedish and the title translates to- 'Men who hate Women'. You can only imagine what disturbing things we were referring to. The night culminated with our favorite dessert place- Yogurtland. Then home to bed it was. What a long and eventful day.

Sunday began similar to Saturday. A 2 hour bike ride with josh. And today would be home improvement project day. We decided to paint the office and the kitchen. Light gray for an elegant office and sea foam blue to compliment the cabinets and countertops of the kitchen. W competed both rooms in about 5 hours. How crazy it is to put a little colour on the wall and change the feel and look of a place. We're really happy how things turned out.
