Weekend Report


Didn't do to much on the fitness front during the weekend. Both my mother and father were up from Florida and wanted to spend some time with them. Saturday morning I met up with my father, brother and his family and my sister and her family down at the beach for some early morning surf casting. My father comes up from Florida every year at this time to catch the Hot Surfcast fishing. Its the last run of the year for Bluefish and Stripped Bass. This Saturday morning was probably the best fishing we had in a long time. There were fish everywhere. They were so close I could have just walked into the water and grabbed one. Everyone caught a fish and my brother's son caught 4! Its always a good time fishing, but getting up at 5:00 am is a little hard. I will post some pics later.

Sunday was a normal Sunday. We went to the Fantastic Umbella FActory in Charlestown and met up with some friends. Just to clarify there are no Umbellas at the place, just a few little shops and some farm animals for the kids. Besides the animals, the best thing about the place is store that has penny candy. Even though they are running alittle low since it is the end of the tourist season, there was plenty for us to grab. After that we went home and Kim started on her homemade sauce and I defrosted some chopped meat for meatballs. 4:00 came around and we all watched the Patriots defeat the Cowboys (very happy about that). My mother came over and had some pasta with us and stayed the night. She goes back to Florida on Tuesday.

Today I went to the Y after Brady's 3 year check up. I had a good swim workout. It seems to be getting easier, but still struggle with the breathing. Just need more practice. After that I did a circuit on the Nautilus equipment. I was going to hit the bike path for a 3 mile run, but I was convinced by my mother to have lunch with her. She put on the guilt trip about her leaving tomorrow and stuff, so I couldn't say no.

Tomorrow will have to be my off day since I have to work 1st shift and will have the kids at night while Kim goes away for business. I might try to see if the kids want to go to the Y, but Reese doesn't like going to the daycare they have. Brady could care less, but Reese just doesn't like it for some reason. Oh well.

That Umbrella Factory place sounds cool. I'm going to have to check it out sometime.
