What I Did My Summer Vacation









It's friggin hot, like Africa hot. I have been busy watching the Tour so my entries have been nonexistent. Before that it was vacation time. Vegas one weekend, Tahoe the next. So this entry is going to be super happy picture time.

My husband and I went to Vegas for a late anniversary because I had a abscessed tooth (super sexy) the real weekend of our anniversary. So off to Vegas where our room faced a ginormous billboard of Rita Rudner on the hotel next door. She looks shocked, she shouldn't though, I usually do what she was watching twirling sparklers on my girls while wearing a donkey costume and eating sherbet out of a three foot bong.
I found heaven in a little place called Espressamente, holy snails I wish I could go there every morning for cappuccino and every night for gelato. I didn't win my jackpot so my Zipp 303's are going to have to wait.
We hunted down the Pawn Stars pawn shop. Found that but also found an adorable tattoo shop called Precious Slut.
Beware of the Coke store. You can taste 14 types of Coke from around the world. This one is from Madagascar, it's Leemur pee flavor.


Next trip was up to Lake Tahoe to see my family who was up camping for a couple weeks. Did Mtn. biking at Northstar for 1/2 a day, I will never complain about my road bike being too heavy after riding a 40 lb rental dual suspension rig. Also did some stand up paddling on the North side of the lake, felt good to get wet. Need to get some surfing in under my belt this summer. Some photos from this trip have been with held due to their graphic content. Lets just say the family elders can party like nobody's business. It was like watching a drunken version of Cocoon. All I know is they know how to have fun.

Nothing says nature like telephones lines running through your pretty picture.
Like I said before, it's friggin hot. My riding is totally hurting because of it too. I actually went out and bought a camelback insulated bottle. Even after I told myself I never would, they seem to me to rival the mirrors you put on your bar ends, kind of gimmicky and gay. We'll see how it works, I like cold beverages. So gimmicky or gay? you decide, just don't hurt poor little Dicky Simmon's feelings.
