The most engaging life I've ever had

exciting, fun, a little intimidating, definitely worth it.

We came, we saw, we conquered

A troop of us invaded enemy territory this week. We took a couple cars down to that engineer-forsaken land of Bloomington. Fortunately, we had an engineer with us to throw out an occasional infinite math equation or third derivative formula. We arrived late Friday night, after fortifying ourselves with some sweet pie and other great food in Indy. After taking my roommate's house by storm, we unpacked and went to bed.
Saturday morning we got up, ate some great pancakes and bacon, stretched out, and drove to Jackson Creek Middle School. There we unloaded our bikes and hit the road on a great 65 mile adventure. We were rode the Hoosier hills bike tour, and even Andrew's mom came along for the full 100+ kilometers! I was impressed. Anyway, we had some totally sweet hills to climb, and it was really mean but fun to take my Dad's old JC Penny 10 speed and rip past a bunch of guys with the high-tech half pound racing bikes. I was sure sore after the race though. It was rough just climbing stairs. lol I must be getting old.
Sunday, we went to the Church of the Good Shepherd in Bloomington, and after lunch and packing we all went to my house for some house gear and a quick running tour. Then we went back south and attended the evening service at Southside. I hadn't been to Southside in who-knows-how-many-years, so it was absolutely fabulous to get a chance to worship with them. After that service, we raced north again, and went to fireside chat in Lafayette, where we talked about the infiniteness of God~ pretty sweet end to a great weekend.
