Bummer

Avery's birth family had to cancel our picnic. Her brother doesn't handle the heat well. Since he was outside for a tad long yesterday, they were worried about having him out in the heat again today. Unfortunately for us, we checked our voicemail messages after we'd already sliced, diced, and loaded all the picnic supplies. Fortunately, we can use quite a bit of it during our roadtrip to Lake Tahoe, so that is good.

This morning's run went well for D, though it was really hot for the runners. We arrived at Nike at 6:55 AM, but they'd already closed off the road we were planning to use to get into the campus. The lines of cars to get onto the street we needed to be on were exceptionally long, so D jumped out and walked in and Avery and I sat in the car while waiting for our turn to be ushered in. Once in, the logistics were very well set up. Nike has a very nice campus. I'm not exactly shocked by this fact, but it would be such a nice place to work. Much better than a trailer in a corn field in Taylor, TX, which was the client site I was working at during my last stint in consulting.

I missed the morning walk with the dogs since we had to be out of the house so gosh darn early this morning. I think it is too hot to head out now, but I'll try to take them later today. Conan's owners, the G's, just stopped by to pick him up after his week long stay here. I think he was quite glad to see them. And my two dogs tried to leave with the G's, too. Our house is so dull for doggies, apparently.
