Project Ride Smart
at Witter Ranch Elementary, about 1.5 miles from my house. I was a volunteer sweep for street rides today. BeckyG and Deanna were the lead LCIs.
ABCQuick Check before leaving campus.
Laura was a new volunteer and I trained her by riding with her for Deanna’s yellow group.
Baseball
Monday. A nice lob into center field, base hit.
Mother’s Day
We all got together at Justin’s for brunch. Justin and Lenin did a great job of getting everything ready to make breakfast burritos.
Baby pigs arrived a couple of weeks ago:
Justin currently has 2 cows, each with a calf, and 2 yearlings:
The neighbor next door has a lot of sheep and lambs:
A very good day. I’m so lucky to have a family like this.

Bike Doc
Robert from SABA emailed last night and asked if I was available to do intake for Bike Doc on Saturday morning at nearby Blackbird Park. Yes and a very short walk from my house.
Country Centre 4-H Bicycle Project
We met early Friday evening at Jeanne’s garage near Two Rivers Elementary. Evret is the project Jr Leader. He races mountain bikes. Tonight he demonstrated how to fix a flat tire.
I led a short but exciting bike ride for 12 people to a nearby ice cream shop. My #1 priority: keeping everyone safe. We had to go straight through a busy round-about and cross a busy street. Everything went smoothly. Evret’s dad and I watched the bikes while everyone else ordered ice cream.
Terrific to have so many parents come along on the ride.
Cafe Bernardo
So much fun to visit with Becky at lunch today.
Games
I picked up Avery and Carson after school. Everyone did their own thing for a while, then Carson decided we should play some board games. He chose four. As he chose the first one, he said, “Frozen Memory … you know I’ll win.” He’s right. But also Connect Four which I’ve beat him at more than once .. and I did this time also .. although he regretted telling me where I should drop my winning red disk. (Silently, I was belly laughing.)
He was a good sport, but .. it was time to move on to the next game, Sequence, which he quickly won.
Great Thursday afternoon entertainment.
Boys Volleyball
The championship game at Our Lady of Assumption. St Ignatius v Merryhill.
St Ignatius won! Cousin Leo is #8 in the back row.
The school sports season came to an end with this game. Avery didn’t play Little League this year. Instead he played volleyball plus two more sports. Golf:
And track and field. Long jump, shot put, 100 meters, 100-meter relay. He set a new school record in long jump.
