Bob's 2nd Most Favorite Thing To Do

Next to camping, Bob loves to go bike riding. Yesterday he decided to try a new place for us to go ride. We drove out to Shawnee Mission Park. It is a really big park with nice paved riding trails (which I prefer, but Bob likes the non-paved better). It started out really nice and realtively flat, and we were just enjoying the scenery and a couple of deer that we spotted. We decided to head down a couple of side paths, and my "easy bike ride" became the workout of a lifetime! Next to giving birth to my 2 girls without any drugs...this was the most physically taxing thing I've done. We rode 20 miles...and honestly I think all but about 8 miles of it was uphill! The worst part was that Bob never huffed and puffed once...or even broke out in a sweat! He was sweet to go slow (very slow) for me and encouraged me along the way. Bob took a picture of me afterwards...I'll post it as soon as we get it off his phone.
