Picture of the Day

This picture was taken on May 18th 1999 at Philadelphia Library steps in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. You might remember this from the "Rocky" movies. When I was there, I actually waited well over 20 minutes for some maintenance truck to move so that I could get this picture. A little known fact, there are actually footprints on the top step. They are Chuck Taylor in prints. Kind of cool. I have fallen back a little in my postings. Maybe some of Stegall's laziness rubbed off on my in Las Vegas. Actually, I will say now that my recovering is complete. But I just haven't done anything the last couple days. Here is a quick recap of my day to show just how boring my life is. I drove to my bridge this morning. I checked in with my one contractor that is working, which is just one electrician. And he has been working on the same stuff for a little over a month and a half now. So there was nothing new there. My prime contractor showed up on the job. I discussed some paper work with him, and then he bought me lunch. I then finished up some paper work in my field office. I know this is exciting stuff. From there, I went to Afton Alps to do some skiing. They finally got some much needed snow. I got in a few runs, hit the terrain park and pulled off a number of jumps, including a "daffy" which didn't look too bad based on my shadow. But I was just too cold, so I left after skiing only an hour. I then went to my health club, I got in a bunch of sit ups, the exercise bike and then the treadmill. I then signed myself up for some tanning sessions. I need to get a base going for my trip to Mexico which is 33 days away. And now I am working on the blog. But as the title of this blog clearly states. That is "The Life of Rickie" at least that was my life today. Yes, pretty boring.
I will be back home to Milwaukee this weekend, and then I get to spend an entire week in the most boring place in the world, Platteville, Wisconsin. I most likely will not have any internet access, so you will have to deal with a week with out me.
