A Biking We Will Go

It has been another beautiful day here. Sun shining and in the low 70s. One of Jason's coworkers has said he is being very deceitful moving us here this time of the year because come October, the weather will be awful, overcast and raining all the time with short periods of daylight. But we will just enjoy how wonderful it is right now.

Today I was given a tour around town. Jason had already covered most everything but it was good to hear more history. I think I am feeling a little more comfortable with directions, it gets better everyday. Tomorrow I think I will try to drive. I need to get ready for Tuesday when I have to start taking Lauren to school.

On our trip into town today we bought Lauren's bike seat and a shield for Justin's bike seat. We also bought me a phone, similar to a GoPhone. So, after about 10 years of 832-567-0777, that number no longer belongs to Jason or I (sigh). We have canceled that account. We also visited the market but did not buy anything. There are people selling a variety of items including fish, cheeses, fruits, breads, nuts, belts, hair bows, dog items, furniture, etc.

After our trip to the market we came home and installed our new bike accessories and then we headed out for a family bike trip through the forest. It is so nice! There are a couple of forest areas around here with bike trails all through them. We just kept riding until we eventually came out on a street. We then decided to stop by the market on our way home and pick up a few things we need for dinner tomorrow since the stores are closed on Sundays. In the picture you can see a couple of our items strapped to the back of my bike, of course some Fruit-to-Go and also some Milner cheese. Very good cheese. I asked Lauren what is her favorite thing about here and her response was "Everything!" I think she is settling in.
