When I’m not at the pharmacy or out on the trails, I can be found outside gardening, cycling around town or reading Game of Thrones. Like most events this year, the annual Seattle to Portland bike race went virtual. I was excited to take on the challenge of completing the 200 miles over a 20-day period. I also joined some friends from work on a ride to Dabney State Park. Many people were floating down the Sandy River on the toasty Sunday.

Last Sunday, Tom and I went kiteboarding in Hood River. The 2.5-hour beginner lesson with Kite the Gorge was a blast! Learning in the world class setting of the scenic Columbia River Gorge was surreal. We are both looking forward to getting back out there again soon.
