St Igance, Day 1

We successfully crossed the Mighty Mac this afternoon around 5:00pm.  One lane closed in the north bound lane and high winds had semi's and trailers traveling at only 20 mph.

So we rolled into the Holiday Inn and checked in.  Then we headed for our annual climb of Castle Rock.

God Bless America!

We bid farewell to the rock after the mandatory souvenier shopping and headed out to eat.  So that means BC pizza.  The place was packed.  The reason being half off Large and X-Large pizza and $1 draft.  After ordeing we sat out on the deck and had pizza and cheese bread.  Best pizza around.

Back to the hotel and we went out to the beach.  The boys like to look for minnows and spend some time in the water.

The minnows have to be here?
JJ got into a beach soccer game.

Brendan makes friends everywhere he goes.

So we retreated indoors after being attacked by biting flies and went to the pool.  After this we called it a night.

Tomorrow brings a new day and the journey to Marquette.  We will be stopping at some waterfalls on the way.  Till then have a great night.

End of Summer

The Best Time to Bike! On Saturday I traveled with Raymond to the Bear Claw Epic.  This was the second annual race and the second time up there for Raymond and I.  We got there with plenty of time to spare and got ready to go. Farley ready to go. I registered for Beginner Fat Bike or at least I thought so?  I felt pretty good and knowing that I only had one lap to do I went all out.  I passed several riders through the race and felt I did pretty good.  This course has a lot of climbing and rewards you with some nice downhills. After I finished my race I put on a fresh shirt and went out on the course with the camera and my new lens.  I took over 400 pictures and headed back to the start finish after Raymond finished his race. Raymond on his second lap. And the final climb. The beginner awards were going on and they announced my name as first place for Beginner Men 50-59.  I was surprised, but did not protest.  Aft...

Thanksgiving and More!

Thanksgiving has come and gone.  We are now full on into the Christmas rush.  So let me bring you up to date. The forecast for Thanksgiving was for some snow.  So I went and got mom and dad for the celebration and it did snow.  We had the entire family over and it was a full house.  We all enjoyed a delicious meal and the Lion's even won! The men are relaxing. Mom's hitting the bottle!   Everyone cleared out around 9pm or so.  Michelle and I then went through the Black Friday adds in preparation of our shopping trip.     We were up early and made it to the Family Chirstian Book Store around 6:15am.  We then went to Sam's and Walmart.  We stopped and ate to fuel up for the next round.  Well the next round did not happen and we went home for a nap.  I woke up after a short nap and unloaded most of the goodies.We then started working around the house in preperation of setting up the Christmas Tree. ...
