April delivered and came in like a lion, or something like that. We headed to Clemson and it was great to visit the farm during lamb season, bringing back memories and making me miss home. While Jennifer was studying for the PE exam we took the kids to the farm. Zoey loved all the critters, especially the cheeky goats and Zac continued his obsession with chasing the rooster, which I am convinced is a innate male trait...Sean always joins in a good roost chase. Two of our weekends consisted of volunteering for our local bike rally and assisting the ASU collegiate cycling team race weekend, which they won the conference title. I took a class trip to the Blitmore in Asheville, which was especially rewarding since the tulips bloomed a week early. Take that you festival of flowers season ticket holders! I would post the class pix, but one of my star students *NOT* decided to moon the camera with his huge belly...thanks, that will get you far in the real world. I couldn't resist a few pix of the orchids, always reminding me of the book Orchid Fever, a must read! Sean is working on getting into race form, while I'm still debating over the race calender and sitting the fence on any type of commitment. In the meantime, I'll enjoy the beautiful weather "early" summer is delivering while I suffer through finals week and bid farewell to the next workforce crop.
