Around the world in 90 days: Hulk & Baby Earth, Sea and Sky tour '07: The Continuation

What a summer! It has been too long since we updated and so many things have happened. Piggie turned 9 years old, Hulk will turn 30 in 2 days (so Baby won't be older than him anymore), we made a batch of pickles from our cukes we grew with Piggie, we have been to the beach, to the mountains, to many bike races and, most particularly to Vermont for the Green Mountain Stage Race over labor day weekend. We are sun-soaked and learned and back to school. Long days in the library for Hulk, hours and hours of assistantship for Baby.

We promise to be more consistent with our updates in the near future but for now, here is a recent history in pictures of what we have been up to for the last several weeks.

Here is Piggie in Hulk's racin' suit. Serious.
Baby at Piggie's birthday party. Kids on horses?! What could
Be more fun than that? Oh, grown-ups on horses, too. Hulk'm Skulk'mPiggie on a horseBaby comforts Hulk after the frustrating stage two circus (circuit) race at GMSRHulk & Baby atop Appalachian Gap in Vermont.
Hulk explains how he got chased by bears and dragons
and that was why he was so slow
in the 104 mile road race of GMSR. Baby at the Green Mountain National Forest Robert Frost roadside tourist-happy-picnic-spot. This is right near the Breadloaf campus of Middlebury College where Hulk's parents met in 1962. Aww. Frost's map.
Somewhere in there is Hulk, making the best of the finish
of the Burlington Criterium, stage 4 GMSR. And that, friends is what we have been up to. There are so many details and stories to tell, but now we have to run and get on with our day. Bikes to ride, errands to be run, Piggie to be picked up and all of that sort of thing.

More to come on our new semester, Birthday doings and the beginnings of cyclocross season. If Hulk is sneaky, he might manage to get one of Baby's recent poems up here.

Happy to all.
