2010 Spring Update

The Era-Miller family has been really busy this Spring and we are behind on the blog once again, so this blog post is our 2010 Spring Update! Brandee's been busy bike racing and working on a cool urban streams study at the Department of Ecology. Eric has been busy paddle boarding and making the Olympia Food Co-op a better place. We've both been working on the yard, house, and hanging with our best pup Carmen.

Bike Racing Update...

1st place podium at the Seward Park Criterium on June 3rd. Thanks to Eric's training plan, I'm coming into form to do well in the June road races.

My new team colors look sweet!

2nd place finish at a circuit race in Glenwood, WA. I got beat right at the line by the lady in blue to my left.

Yard Improvements...

Eric did a fabulous job on our new backyard patio. It completed our backyard! Lookout Sunset Magazine, here we come.

Sun shades, lights, and an umbrella complete our back deck.

Paddle Board Update...

Eric and his friend Tim decided to go out on night paddle from Boston Harbor. They had a blast and the bioluminescence was incredible! I can't wait to join Eric on some more night paddles this summer. Eric finally purchased a touring SUP board and he's getting pretty fast.
