2021 mileage: 1044.8
Our nephew Ben works as a nurse at University Hospital here in town, and he worked overnight last night and again tonight. This picture of Ben and his wife Katie with my mother ("Grandma Hellie") is from their wedding in May 2017.
Because of his work schedule, Ben asked us if he could stay with us today and sleep. As the futon where he will be is in our 'Blue Room,' which also houses the stationary bike, I knew I'd have to ride early today if I wanted to get one in, so I just got up about 4:15, and was on the bike from 4:40 till 7:40 (42.7 miles).
I am working my way through a list I've compiled of classic movie musicals, and during today's ride I watched Guys and Dolls. This 1955 movie is undeniably dated, but still, enjoyable to watch. I remembered the story somewhat because they had done the musical at Emerson back in 2006, with Michelle serving as music director.
Anyway, this good solid ride today helped me to kick down the big mileage milestone (1000) that yesterday's ride had left me just short of.
