today on vacation (including the stitches)
So we're here in Idaho. We have the best Denny's by our house. Best in the world. Here's proof: in Post Falls, ID they have the worst Denny's. So that's one more bad one down on our quest to prove that our Denny's is the best Denny's... and it is.
This one is slow and the food is not so good.
When we woke up it was raining. So we put on our bike clothes anyways, because we're hard core.
Then we went to "Treaty Rock" which a park that is cut in 1/2 by I-90. I walked around and saw it. Tammy waited in the car. She is so smart. It was some graphiti by some guys who "acquired" 200 Acres from a high ranking Indian chief from the area. It was covered in plexiglass because people were defacing the defacing.
We went back to the hotel room and changed again. We were going to go shopping.
Next we visited a book/music/video store. The coolest thing about it was the wide age of geeks camped out on the floor in the back yelling at each other while playing one of those damn collected card games. You know the one, I don't want to type it here because then google will assocaite it with me and FTN (fuck that noise) They were so loud we had to go see what they were doing. We got the sound track to the Big Lebowski. It rocks.
OK so now it's sunny sorta so we went to the state park. Farragut state park with a ton of riding trails. It's an old WWII naval training camp with the camps still there as these big fields. There was a big ass reunion going on. We finally got some water and figured out where we wanted to ride. We took our time getting set and we rode .25 miles when I saw a trail marker and stopped. Tammy fell because of it and bashed her leg on her pedal. It was big and nasty, but didn't bleed much at all, just a little bit. Owch. For just a minute she was really mad at me then as we got her cleaned up she cooled off. We butterflied it closed and she wanted to keep riding. We did some single track down and back up. We had to walk up some of it because it was pretty steep. We went a total of 3.25 miles and got back to the car because her leg was hurting. We untaped it and changed the dressing and decided it needed cleaned.
Enter the nav system. We pushed "Nearest Hospital" and it took us to an urgent care in Hayden, ID. They were so nice, but they took one look at it and said "stitches". So after a nasty set of shots (the local) she wasn't feeling at pain anymore, but the stitching started. 1..2...3...4...5 five V F.I.V.E of them. Black thread that needs to come out next week.
From there we went to the Olive Garden for dinner. If you go to the Olive Garden in Post Falls, ID and there is along wait, I can tell you for sure that the pager is in range in the Boarders. We ate a great meal and headed to the drug store to get some bandages (have to change it daily). We also got her some tylenol PM. She just took one and should be asleep really soon.
Tomorrow we're buying some donuts and driving west til we get home... No Biking. No Swimming. I might get an audio book because she's going to sleep all the way home.
Shout outs to the day: (Tammy says: "ow" and the medical clinic was great) Olive Gargen for a great dinner and pager range.
