Car Woes....

On Weds. morning Heidie and I headed for a ride up Strawberry Canyon. The old Hondarooski had other plans. She started sputtering. So I decided that it would be best to park the car at the golf course instead of the bottom of Riverdale where there is no cell phone coverage. The car doctor can't check her out until next Mon. or Tues., I am afraid of where the cancer has spread to now. But the positive is that I have been driving the new truck ( great air conditioning)! Back to riding. We dropped the Riverdale dugway and rode up the canyon. The canyon has just been chipped sealed. It is already getting packed down well. Due to mommy time constraints we only hit about 31 miles. But alot of that ride is uphill. The Hondarooski did make it back home. I have decided to keep her parked until I know the diagnosis.

My soccer team is in the middle of a soccer tournament we have lost 2 games, each 3-2. We have one more game tomorrow morning.

Shane and JT are very busy with work. (Out in the heat.)
