    I've walked 2.5 miles plus 13 from bike. I've made sure to get out earlier so it isn't so dang hot!

    Thanks @JANET for covering the last couple of days! It's been a blur. A happy blur. :love: And thanks to ALL of you for the well wishes on my injury & impending surgery this Friday AND on the wedding day last Sunday! IT WAS PERFECT. Couldn't have asked for a nicer weather day! 78°F, sunny and a nice breeze. It was a very sweet, cool, unique outdoor wedding. I rode up on my small motorcycle in my leather vest, two of my buddies were waiting in their vests and then they walked me with my arms over their shoulders over to where I would stand. My two adult boys that are total hams did the Flower boy dance on their way in throwing flower petals from their fanny packs :smiley:, my daughter and Jen's son walked up next. Then here comes the bride being escorted by her father. She looked stunning and took my breath away. :love:

    We had some fun music to walk in and out to, our special song "Make You Feel My Love" while we hung pictures of our immediate family (the ones still here and those in Heaven) on a special tree, our own vows and pledges of love with some humor sprinkled in...then I totally surprised Jen by recording a message and then singing to her Elvis' song, "Can't Help Falling in Love with You". Not a dry eye in the house, especially mine. :lol: I HAD to record it because I KNEW I could never make it through without choking up. Even recording it took me about 40 tries before I could get through it cleanly!! :lol: We had a small group of family and close friends and neighbors in attendance. It was everything Jen and I hoped it would be and then some. Then we had a quick receiving line, then pictures of the wedding party, then a catered BBQ, soda & beer & seltzer, and lots of yummy homemade desserts provided by neighbors. What an absolutely wonderful day!

    I will attach a couple of pictures. Ignore the swollen left leg. :smile:

    Dave

    @darkrider42 Dave, I don't see my post signing up for 50 miles this month.

    I started a new job last week that is 9 hours a day tied to a desk so my mileage is going to be down. I'm not sure I really like it but I'll give it time and see.

    @dave Congrats! The pictures are great, I love her dress, beautiful color. You don't look so bad yourself :smiley: I"m happy for you.

    @Libi_KK I'm in the same boat, stuck to a desk in an office where it's only 40 steps to loop around the hall. Not liking it either. My miles used to be 100 or so. Now I'm down to 30. :angry:

    Skipped weights this morning and did 2 miles on the treadmill

    @Dave Beautiful wedding, thank you for sharing. You are in my thoughts today, hope the surgery goes well.

    It's amazing how many miles I can walk when I'm walking and preparing my class script at the same time. Can't say the same for the teaching when I'm tied to my computer for the duration. Added 10 miles in 2 days for an August total of 22 miles.
