Pace: 8:38

It's been four days since I last ran. Monday and Tuesday I did nothing but work all day. I went to Priest River on Monday and dealt with crazy people in Bonner's Ferry on Tuesday. Seriously, there were stinky dogs in the office. I was listening for the Deliverance banjo riff.

Anyway, I finally got a couple of hours free this afternoon so I went on the running path from Sandpoint to Dover. It was only 8 miles round-trip, so I ran around the streets of Sandpoint for the last couple of miles. I got a little bit lost and tried to cut through the cemetary. That didn't work very well since the other side was fenced off and the snow was still a foot deep in some parts of the cemetary. By the time I got back to the palatial LaQuinta Inn, nature was calling pretty hard.

Oh, and I got whistled at by a couple of redneck chicks in a pickup truck ... I hope they were chicks.

I had a trial up in North Idaho once. I know EXACTLY what you mean. Let's just say that round those parts the jury pool is every bit as shallow as the gene pool. :)

Or guys with mullets...probably as pretty as some of the backwood gals up there. Hopefully they weren't Aryans! I love that area (northern Idaho) but it can be a tad...different.
