Well….that whole daily blog thing didn’t last very long. I blame the cycle.
The cycle saloon that is. Yesterday afternoon about 14 of us cousins, siblings, and in-law’s joined a cycle saloon tour in Bend, Oregon. It was such a fun afternoon.
If you’ve never seen a cycle saloon, it is essentially a traveling bar. You bike to different breweries and can drink along the way. It is ridiculous and silly and a really great time.
Yesterday it was nearly 100 degrees in Bend and you actually have to pedal to keep the bike bar moving. Each brewery stop was refreshing for the beverages and the air conditioning.
We returned sweaty and happy – a fantastic bonding experience amongst family.
But not the best condition for blogging. Later, I was committed to multiple rounds of bocce (knocked out in the semi-finals! sigh).
And then I was simply wiped. Not a bit of inspiration to be found. But really happy from a fun day.
I laid in bed and thought about writing a blog to hit my daily goal. And then realized I didn’t really want the pressure of a daily goal after all. I’d rather enjoy my cycle saloon fully. And wrap my day fully present with a nice glass of wine and good conversation. Without the pressure of writing something interesting.
So a new and revised goal – I’m going to write frequently. Daily where possible. But not at the expense of living life. Because the ultimate goal is enjoying life. Cycle saloon and all!
