Help! I'm the Prey

So I went for a 30 mile bike ride today. I got a route off of map my run and thought I would try it out here in Idaho. Very rural roads in farm land. I was minding my own business and I hear the scream of a hawk or some bird of prey. I look up and it is diving at me. I was so scared. I start yelling at the stupid bird to get away from me and waving my arms. He circled around me and came at me again. Finally, he flew away back to his telephone pole from whence he came but I was pretty shaken up. I had another 15 miles to go now with the added worry of more bird attacks. It sure reminded me of "The Birds".

Anyway I want to wish you all good luck tomorrow. Remember to call me as I called you last week. I want to hear all the juicy details. I am actually coming home tomorrow. We decided not to go to our family reunion. We didn't want to drive to eastern Idaho. See you on Sunday.

Bird attacks sound scarier than my dog chases! Thanks for the well wishes. I think we are all nervous! I will call you after it is all done. :-)
