It was a hot weekend in Memphis, but it wasn't bad yet Saturday morning when I went downtown to paddle. I was tired from the sprints I'd done on Friday, but I still got in three 8-stroke sprints just to work on the motor skills for paddling fast. I spent the rest of the 60-minute session doing a steady loop out on the Mississippi.
Yesterday, instead of paddling, I drove my car. By the end of the day I had joined my family for a little beach vacation down at Dauphin Island, Alabama. I've probably endured more horrible drives than yesterday's in my time, but right now I can't remember any. I'm not sure why yesterday's drive seemed so bad--there were no traffic snarls or anything like that. I wasn't feeling all that well physically and I guess I just wanted the trip to be over. All I know is that when I finally arrived I was one exhausted, stressed-out human being. Oh well... now I'm down here with no particular responsibilities the rest of the week.
