Chalk Report

It takes a lot of chalk to write a name. Especially on chipseal. I used 3 giant pieces of sidewalk chalk. And Ben's name is only Ben. Good thing I wasn't sending chalk love to his teammate Dominique.

White chalk is the best color. Bella colors do not stand out at all. But so what.

I am not an artist. I shouldn't even try. The heart, in Bellas Heart Ben, looks like a blue and pink lump of Playdoh. Bellas Playdoh Ben.

It hurts when you run out of chalk and scrape your knuckles across the pavement. Ouchie cheese grater.

I just noticed that I have blue paint under my nails.

It was fun seeing all the pre-race stuff occuring up there. Specialized has lots of tents set up. Gotta hand it to them for the guerilla marketing with the Specialized Angel chick. She was up there too just now. Except her hair was in rollers and she had no wings or makeup. Wish I had my camera.

The Discovery team came by while I was chalking. They are just so rock star. Johan was following behind and he had a huge smile on his face. Wonder what he was so happy about? And again, me without my camera.

More later....
