Mile 0 of the Alaskan Highway and a Baby Garman  

Early this morning, I received a text that two dear friends just welcomed their first child into the world.  Owen James Garman was born this morning and weighed in at 6 lbs 12 oz, and if he is anything like his dad I’m guessing he has a huge noggin.  Both Jill and Owen are doing well.  Congratulations guys, I can’t wait to meet the little guy!

Well after yesterday’s issues, I jumped on the bike with no other intention than to try to get to mile 0 as fast as possible.  We had a lot of stuff to do so, I wanted to give us enough time.  Considering the terrain I rode it very fast.  Not much of anything happed, just head down and hard pedaling.

Thanks for the shout out (and phone call!), EP! OJ has definitely inherited his father's gaseousness. So far he is a little peanut but I am anticipating huge noggin!
