Happy Mother's Day

Having learned my lesson yesterday, I got on it earlier today, and what a gorgeous day: sunshine, north wind, tiny little waves.

And having just said that no one helps me out, today I got advice from two guys (for free) that was actually helpful. Although it was painful to hear how I am still mostly getting up (sticking my butt up and laboring to my feet), at least I was getting up, and I did get several rides that they could see and critique. That's what I've been missing, all along: feedback. What a fun day! I wish they were all like this---not too crowded, friendly faces, helpful advice, nice small waves. I got out happy after a couple hours.
