| Castlewood. Forgot to reset/start the bike computer.... so time is an estimate. Out at castlewood. Trying out tow system for race next week and then some trails. Kind of humid out but otherwise a nice day for a ride. Trails are getting a little dusty and therefore a little slippery. | ||
| Paddling (canoe) 2:15:00 [3] | |
| Meramec, upstream from the castlewood boat ramp to the last 'rapid' before the rail bridge.
Hot until the clouds provided some relief. Some light sprinkles the last 20 minutes. Saw 2 deer, lots of big fish, turtles, herons, a guy paddling alone from Bourbon to the Mississippi River (taken him 2 weeks), a guy paddling upstream in a white water kayak but using a canoe paddle (he was having a tough time). The river is still quite muddy, low visibility in the water. | ||

| Note | |
| Took B to see Clone Wars this afternoon as a 'last day of summer' treat. He goes back to school tomorrow.
I thought the movie was better than the ratings given by the critics. The animation was an interesting blend of styles. Some of the scenes seemed as 'real' as the non-animated movies, but some of the characters seemed almost comic book cut-out. It was in a largish auditorium at Crestwood. We were the only two people in the theater. A private screening. | ||
