Very nice weather this week in beautiful DuPage County. Planning on a little yard work this morning then maybe a hike later. Life is good.

With 5 inches of rain and still pouring it sure isn’t dry around here this morning

===Very nice weather this week===

BBQ’d, worked in the garden and sat outside all evening yesterday. So pleasant.

Perhaps I’m the only person watching - but the Tour de France has been amazing all month and yesterday was an all time performance for one rider and today the tour might be finally decided in the mountains.

Cool Papa Bell. I agree. TDF has been awesome this year. Refreshing to see the comraderi while still having to the max individual and team efforts. USA riders also having good runs. TDF is replacing football as my favorite sport to watch.

access to watch TDF limited because of the Peacock thing. But…. Today’s stage was an amazing blow out to keep the Yellow Jersey WAY ahead of the White Jersey. (for those of you who do not understand, I feel sorry for you. the other day people lined three deep the last 15k of the race. missing some astounding scenery today if you did not watch. you don’t have to love the sport to love the visions of France live. after all, TDF started as a tourism project!) Vive Le Tour.
