The weekend was really nice. We went to Raleigh to the NC Museum and checked out the Matisse and Picasso exhibit. But there was only one VanGogh. That disappointed me, but other than that it was cool.

Anyway, I have felt great in the gym lately. the time I'm there I have a real drive to go at it as hard as I can. I bumped up the weights a good bit on some chest and back exercises. But here are a couple of days on one entry:
