Quads were very sore today after the stair climb yesterday. We were all doing a little whining when going up and down stairs.

The grandkids are really bored. The stupid judge in North Carolina still has not signed the custody papers, so they can't get the kids into school in Georgia. It has been 2 1/2 weeks and they are actually wanting to get into school.

A little before noon we came up with a plan. Sent the kids off on their bikes to ride the 5.5 miles to Wally World. We met them there and got more decorations for their rooms and I bought the kids and Jenn each some Wii games. After lunch, I started the run back home along the Atlantic Coastal Highway. Brad and Elise caught up after .5 miles and then Elise took off. Brad stayed back to talk to me and pushed me to go a little faster than usual.

That was a lot of stairs in the light house. GREAT Xtrain! :) NICE run along the coast and way to keep the grandkids entertained. Hope they can get into school soon. Enjoy your time with Jenny and the family!
