A Finlaggan kind of day....

 8:27 pm - Monday - July 24th -  LPG&RVR - 78° F, humidity 28%, wind 6 mph out of the west by southwest......blue skies at sunset, and the forecast high of 90° F has come and gone.  On this date in 2017 TLE and I were at Yellowstone National Park watching the sun set......↴

Sunday was a perfect 4th day of our 'weekend'.....we began the day watching the final round of 'The Open', which featured rain, and wind.....more typical of the kind of weather one has come to expect at 'The Open'.  The round began with Brian Harman holding a commanding 4 stroke lead at 10 under par.  Brian hit 10 under par on Friday, and little did we know then that he would be the only one to reach double figures under par.  He ended up winning easily at 13 under par, by 6 strokes.  Next we watched a couple of FIFA Women's World Cup matches, and finished off the afternoon watching Stage 21 of Le Tour de France.  

In between the soccer matches, and the 21st Stage I road my mountain bike around the perimeter of the golf course.  It was hot, probably around 95° F, which contributed to my slightly lethargic mood.  I knew pretty early on that riding in the 1st assist level would not be possible for me, and I ended up riding mostly in assist level 2, and then level 3 for the final climb up the local hill at the end of the ride.....

....and it showed in my final ride numbers.  Even though I rode in level 2 and 3, I got a good workout, and that is really the point of the eBike.....even when I am not at my best, I can use the higher assist levels, and still ride the same distance.

We had bought a nicely aged sirloin tip steak a week, or two ago at Holiday Market, and TLE suggested we grill it for dinner.  Around 5:30 pm I lit the Sea-B-Que, and by 5:45 pm I was grilling the steak.....

It felt like a Finlaggan Single Malt kind of night

......by 6 pm we were sitting down to a delicious dinner with sides of roasted potatoes, and roasted sweat potatoes, plus some broccoli.

To cap off a great day we watched another episode of 'Touch Frost', and I was in bed by 9 pm in anticipation of getting up Monday at 5 am to begin my work day at 6:30 am.

Thanks for stopping by!
