TLC Youth Camp

Yesterday brought to a close of our True Life Covenant Youth Camp.  We had 11 campers this year and we were more organized than last year.  The kids all had a great time.

 Kids Crafts
 

 Kayak Race
 
 Putt Putt Golf
 
Closing Pizza Party
 
We had rented a cabin this year and it made a big difference in our ability to get food ready.  It was also right on the lake so the littlest one's could fish and we could still watch them.  All in all a great camp.
 
I also managed to get some training miles in for Ore 2 Shore.  I brought the fat bike down and rode four days.  The last ride I got 21.5 miles in.  Training will continue this week, hopefully JJ will get out with me.
 
Our next event will be Scottie's graduation party!  Stay tuned.

Introducing!

As I said in my previous post I had purchased a few things and would be introducing and reviewing them here.  Up next are: Surly Rim Strips:  These rime strips are designed for 80mm rims.  They also make them for 65mm and 100mm rims. They come in several colors. These are red and will go on the wheels that I have on the Vortex.  They are light weight, easy to work with and very durable.  I have these in various colors on most of my fat bike wheels.   Topeak Joe Blow Fat Tire Pump:  Following is from the Topeak Website: JoeBlow™ Fat The first floor pump exclusively designed for low pressure fat tire bikes.

Summer Vacation Day 4: The ER

Day four started out with beautiful weather.  We had breakfast and Michelle took Brendan fishing.  I decided I would take a ride on the bike and do a little recon for a family bike ride. I set off east to ride toward Rapid River.  I rode around the the edge of the bay and took a few pictures. Dunes on the edge of Gladstone. This was around 4-5 miles out of town in a small subdivision. The photo above is of a small river I crossed, unfortunately I cannot remember the name.  I thought I found a bike trail that would be nice for all of us.  Unfortunately it was swampy and not kept up.  I headed back to Gladstone and met Michelle and Brendan out on the fishing dock. I sat with them for a while and Brendan caught this. This is a Gobi.  An invasive species of the Great Lakes. After a few minutes I started back to the house.  On the way I started to have some chest pain.  After showering it had not let up. ...

Vacation 2016, Day 5

Got a little behind here with downloading photos and our last travel day.  So going to catch up over the next couple days.  When I wrap up with the final day I will also give out some  of my opinion on the venues we were at.  Day 5 (Thursday) was definitely the best day of our vacation.  Michelle, Brenda and I were the first ones up and we went down to iHop, which was in the lobby of the hotel.  We quickly discovered how expensive it is to eat in Canada.  Breakfast was very good, however seemed to be twice as much as we would spend at home.  We took our leftovers back to the rooms and Jay Jay and Kayla ate, then we headed out. Walking from the hotel the falls were only 10-15 minutes away.  The city of Niagara Falls, Canada is very nice, the sun was out and the temperature was perfect.  Great weather for a walk around town. This was my first time to the falls and they are just incredible!  I took many photos and am going to post s...
