After breaking my hand last week, I had a few days to wait for the swelling to go down before I could see a hand specialist. Our plan was to head to Spokane last weekend for a practice day before the first race of the season, the Beacon Hill Double Down Hoe Down.

| Some goodies arrived while to make me feel better! |
Obviously, I can't ride now, so the plan was scrapped. Ruth and I awoke Saturday morning, realizing it was St Patrick's Day, and made some calls to set up some last minute plans. We ended up hosting a few friends over at our place to escape the amateurs going to the local bars. A few beers and some green dye later and we had a good old Irish party!

| Rylie ready to party. Yup, I dress my dog up. I'm one of those people. Deal with it. |

| I've worn this shirt every March 17th since the 6th grade. My mom bought this while I was in the 6th grade. My mom is cooler than your mom. |
I went to the doctor on Monday to get the final diagnosis. I did break my hand, but things are looking pretty good. I'll be getting my cast off in 3 weeks hopefully and should be good to race by Sea Otter next month. Luckily, this was just a minor injury and surgery won't be required.

| The swelling has gone down and looks more normal. |

| Small cast for the next few weeks. |
Charlie is coming up tomorrow and Billy Lewis will be joining us for the first race of the season this weekend. I'll have the first race report of the year next week! Until then, I'm going to Harbor Freight to buy a megaphone (they are on sale right now for $5.00) and I'll be on the sidelines cheering on my teammates until I can race again. See everyone this weekend!
