Indoor Bike Odometers

How accurate are they? I rode for 1.5 hours today, and mine says I rode 23 miles. I had an up-down, up-down hill interval chosen. Does anyone know about these things?

Have you joined Paperback Swap?

Essentially, you post books you are willing to ship to someone, and in return you get a point to "buy" another book. When you register and list 10 books, you receive 2 credits immediately. I have already transacted 12 times and received some great books. Postage is usually a little more than $2.00 for either first class or media rate. So, give it a try: http://www.paperbackswap.com/index.php

What is a family by Edith Schaeffer. This is an ex-library book and an older version than the one pictured here. If you would like this, just leave a comment on this post, and I will draw a name on Friday at midnight.

Our Little Vegetable/Herb Garden

Here it is -- our small garden. Parsley (for the Swallowtail butterflies), lemon balm, cherry tomatoes, regular tomatoes, zucchini and cucumbers. Oh, and a begonia for a splash of color.

Wow -- A Great Video Showing How Hero Arts Makes Their Stamps!

I just LOVE Hero Arts stamps. What a great company!

This isn't much -- just a few small acrylic stamps I will never use. Comment here, and I will choose a name on Friday at midnight.
