Picture Update

Despite the daily grind of work, family, and life in general there is no excuse for so much time to pass between post's. The Inmon family is doing well here in South Carolina. We are just moving along at the speed of life. The kids are growing like the proverbial weed and if I don't get back to a normal riding schedule very soon I may just qualify for the job as the Macy's day parade Santa Claus...Our trip to big MO was good despite the circumstances. It was good to see friends and family albeit short. My friends Yoak, Smitty, Hilgers, Stegall, Roberts, Blinn, and Humader thanks for taking time to have a cold beer. Matt thanks for the lake hospitality the kids loved the boat and it was so great to see them get up on ski's. Great coaching. Mom, Stac, Kaiser, Ann, Beth, and Debbie thanks so much for everything and of course the great hospitality. Too many other people to mention at this hour but great to see everyone.

Now just enjoy some pic's, more to come.

Thanks for reading, Y'all tune in again soon.

Springtown Bound

We are loading up the family truckster and headed back to Springtown. Unfortunately our purpose if to attend the funeral of my wife's "Mimi" her grandmother who passed away in the early hours of Tuesday morning July 1st. Mimi had a fantastic life and lived to be 99years of age. She will be deeply missed by all especially her "Sugar Kisses" she so loved to give. The great thing is that she is now in Heaven with God, Jesus, and her family that departed before. God bless you Mimi!

We are planning on a weeks stay if possible and I am bringing my road bike. If anyone is up to a very slow recovery ride I would be happy to join you.

The Beer Ride

Well I made it! Slow but felt quite good on the bike. Not Pro Brad good. It is damn good to see him kicking ass in the peloton. Keep up the good work my friend. The turnout for the ride was big, about 45 riders. Only about 101 degrees at ride time, but twenty two miles later we had cold beer waiting for us at Beef O'Brady's and was it refreshing. Found myself in a sprint a quarter of a mile to the finish behind an older gentleman with a rack on the back of his bike that could hold a six pack, I swung out in his slipstream and flew by him digging deep flying at about a 29 mph pace until I was blue in the face. I took one look over my shoulder and bam...he flew by me like I was sitting still. Wow, nothing like getting your ass handed to you by old Mr. touring bike guy.

Enjoy some of our pics of our trip at the Tour De Georgia.

98,99,100...

No, we are not playing hide and seek. That is the forecast for the next three days! Terri and I are headed up to the town center tonight to do a little beer tasting at the Wine, beer, cigar, and other goodies shop. Tomorrow night I will once again throw my leg over the old bike and hit the Friday night beer ride for the first time this year. I just hope I can hang on with the adults pulling their kid trailers...

Tour de Georgia

Well I had grandiose ideas of live updates and photos from the road but too much going on to pull it off. So I have nothing on Cycling News! Some cool pics and updates from our quick family vacation down to Tybee Island, Savannah, and Augusta to see the first two stages of the Tour. Will try to update additional pics and story tomorrow. Jelly Belly and Rock Racing were the Jam, both teams really embraced Tanner and Charlee. Wish we could have seen Brad race. We now have two really excited young cyclists. Gotta run and get to a client consultation. Yes it is late, but gotta do what you gotta do.

Hello out there...April 10th, 2008

Quite a bit has happened here in Cola, not sure where to start so hold on, here we go! First of all I have our One Year Old Son Jackson sitting in my lap trying to help me with this post. Thankfully we have spell check and the all too convenient backspace key. (Okay, well three weeks ago when I started this post he was on my lap...but now just finishing.

• St. Patty's Day Family Celebration in Five Points (Damn we look good in Green)
  
• Tornado's ripped through Columbia, surrounding areas, and our neighborhood (thankfully the twister jumped over our subdivision but unfortunately hit the one just past ours) I sure as hell thought we left that damn stuff when we moved from MO. The crazy thing is we did not think too much of it because Cola does not have storm sirens! Pretty devastating storm, approximately 89 homes destroyed
  
• Tanner is kicking goals and taking names at our YMCA soccer league. Could be the great coaching by me!


• Work...busy, thank God
  
• Lent is over...it appears I gave up cycling instead of beer...
  
• Road trip to one of SC's great State Parks about 20 miles from Augusta for a weekend in the motor home on Lake Thurmond. Yes, Strom Thurmond was big in SC
  
• Easter weekend and Jackson's first birthday spent in the great outdoors
  
• Yes, we spent Easter weekend in the "Church of the Great Outdoors" and his creation was beautiful
  
• Terri and Jackson are in Springfield for the week, Terri's sister (one of five) Kathy passed away Saturday night (prayers go out to her and her family)
• This house is really quiet without them
  
• The kids kick my butt in Nintendo Wii
  
• Taking a family vacation in the motor home for the first two stages of the Tour De Georgia (Tybee Island camp site first night, Savannah second night, driving to Augusta to see the finish of Stage two) really excited


• Got a new grill (very cool) and overheard the kids telling Terri how she has missed great dinners this week (made me feel really good)
• Tanner received his Reading Counts T-shirt-award for great reading!
• Jackson is walking like a retired man out at the mall
  
• Congrats to my friend Jimmy on the news of a new baby daughter (best wishes my friend, truly the greatest thing you will ever experience)

Enjoy the pics....stay dry in MO.
