Feeling better and a relaxing weekend

After a good does of antibiotics I'm finally feeling much better! Doug and I spent the weekend in Winter Park with our friends Ryan and KC. It was a really relaxing weekend and we were entertained for hours by Ryan and KC's 3 month old kittens, Scout and Loki. Doug reminded me that it is fun to "play with other people's kittens" (implying that I don't need to bring any home). Since I've raced the last 3 weekends in a row and have been sick I talked myself out of racing on Saturday and enjoyed an easy ride with Ryan and KC around Winter Park and a little jog. We had a leisurely breakfast and played with the kittens most of Saturday morning before riding up to the resort to catch Doug finishing. Doug is on fire this year...he ended up winning the Expert Men overall and would have been 27th in the Pro Men! I cut my ride short so I could go back to the awards and get a picture of him on the podium but my camera skills failed me yet again and I only got a picture of his back. On Sunday we rode for a few hours on some super fun trails the nobody was on before heading home. My typical "Sunday blues" (being bummed that early rise time and work are right around the corner) were minimized since the weekend actually seemed long for once. Only 4 days of work this week and then we'll be relaxing in Breckenridge and going for the coed team win at the Firecracker 50...can't wait!
