tour-de-Boulevard.\u00a0 I&#8217;ve been on it several times before, but not since their big expansion a few years back.\u00a0 It was interesting as always, especially to see how much they&#8217;ve grown since the last time I was there.\u00a0 After that we had loosely planned to head down to the Power &amp; Light area for a while, but the weather was too nice to be inside so we opted for, what else, the deck at the Brooksider.\u00a0 Donette headed to the Royals game for her evening entertainment;\u00a0 I went home and watched it on the couch with Gabe.<\/p>\n<p>Saturday I got up and headed out to the Downtown Airport to join Munkirs &amp; Martin on a little bike ride.\u00a0 For some time, our plan has been to start training post-float-trip, so I guess we&#8217;re making good on that so far.\u00a0 I&#8217;m not exactly clear what we&#8217;re training <em>for<\/em>, but we can figure that out later.\u00a0 It was definitely good to get back on the ol&#8217; bike.\u00a0 I&#8217;ve done precious little riding in the last several years, maybe this will be the summer I actually do a little cycling again.\u00a0 Off to a decent start anyway;\u00a0 We managed to get in 15 miles or so, despite a rather annoying wind.\u00a0 We&#8217;ll see where it goes from here.\u00a0 Either we go again sometime this week, or the bike goes back on the wall for another five years.\u00a0 After that small bout of exercise, I went home and mowed the lawn.\u00a0 It is in full crazy-growing mode;\u00a0 I just mowed that stupid stuff last Sunday and it was already way too tall.\u00a0 I got it knocked down though.\u00a0 Better hit it again Wednesday.\u00a0 Around 3:00 we headed out to the Royals game.\u00a0 It didn&#8217;t start until 6:00 but the weather was awesome so we decided to do a little grilling.\u00a0 Enjoyed some hamburgers, then went in and watched the home team get pummeled.\u00a0 I was actually a little excited to see Greinke pitch, but I guess it just wasn&#8217;t his night.\u00a0 I was complaining about the fact that they <em>never<\/em> win when I go to the games.\u00a0 Donette pointed out that they just never win, so maybe I&#8217;m not actually cursed.<\/p>\n<p>Sunday we just kind of hung out and enjoyed the weather.\u00a0 We took Gabe on a nice long walk, then decided to waste the rest of the afternoon at the Brooksider on the porch.\u00a0 I have a feeling this weather isn&#8217;t going to last long, so I figure enjoy it while it&#8217;s here.\u00a0 We hung out there for quite a while, then hit Jalapenos for dinner and called it a weekend.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well that was the last of my long weekends for a while, I&#8217;m afraid.\u00a0 Oh well, it was a good one.\u00a0\u00a0 I&#8217;d been wanting to go to the Boulevard Brewery tour for a long time, and it&#8217;s almost impossible to get in on the weekends any more.\u00a0 So, I took off Friday and got in [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-601","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-current-events"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/601","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=601"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/601\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=601"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=601"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=601"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
