Le Tour

July is here and that means the Tour de France. Yesterday was the team time trial (TTT) and after watching Astana ("the well-oiled machine" in the words of Paul or Phil -- I can never keep them straight), who can argue that cyclists are not high-level athletes. The beauty of the individual riders working as one is something to see.

On the topic of the Tour, please check out my somewhat tongue-in-cheek article on how to watch the Tour in this month's Catalyst Magazine, which you can find online here:

On another topic, last week was the Chambers' family annual gathering at Bear Lake. Hopefully I will have some pictures posted shortly. The only downside to the weekend was that Steven's specatular fireworks display was rained out. Not to worry, the fireworks themselves are safe and dry, waiting for Labor Day.
