I'm not dead...

Apologies for failing to update you all. Connexion problems have kept me from both writing & posting photos, so I promise, when I get back to the US on 01 August, extensive coverage of my brilliant experience here in France for the Tour. Rode the étape du tour Monday really well (for me--oldest participant by 9yrs!); climbed Alpe d'Huez yesterday (2:04)! In Paris now to meet Jane Sunday & see the finish from the Champs d'Elysee together...
