Sunday Funday!

Michelle and I were still not feeling the best when we got up this morning.  I needed to go to Begick's Nursery to pick up bark for mom and deliver it to her house (a project we have been working on there).  Still was having a hard time with my body temperature.  I was either really hot or really cold on the way there.  The rain was supposed to hold off till afternoon but decided to come early.  Begick's was great and loaded the bark for me and when I got to mom's I was able to pull the truck in the garage and unload. I had a nice visit with mom and headed home.
 
Michelle ordered take out at Pando House and I picked it up on the way home.  We had a nice meal when I got home and then Michelle took a nap.  I worked on some laundry and then headed for the basement.  I had been working on a friends bike and was able to finish that.  Then it was time to clean up the bike shop.  I got the cleaning done and then did some more photos of items to go on eBay.  With a little time left I started to prep the Green Machine for it's new fork.  I pulled the front wheel and changed the disc rotor. That is all I will do for now until the fork arrives.
 
I watched the Lions play the Packers and they won!  They looked good today.  Now U of M is another story.  Brady Hoke has to go!  I was not a proponent of his however I felt he deserved 4 years to bring in players that he recruited.  Hard to believe that the best QB he can find is Gardner?  He finally pulled him and put in Morris.  The kid threw an interception in his first set.  Game snaps are a lot different than practice!  I give the kid credit though.  He made a nice open field tackle on the guy that made the interception and stopped a sure TD.  Not having much hope for this season.
 
That puts the wrap on another weekend.

Summer Vacation: Day 10, Heading Home.

Sunday would be a long day of travel as we would make the trek home in one day.  Still shorter than driving from Marquette. We had breakfast and started to pack up.  I had put the bikes on the van Saturday evening while the grill was heating up and loaded a few things up.  We managed to get on the around just a few minutes after 12:00pm.   Michelle would take the first leg of the drive at the wheel of the van and I would rest.  We made a stop at a rest area in Manistique and I took a few photos. A lighthouse for Michelle.  A mouse in a tuxedo! We got back on the road and stopped at another rest area.   Very cool! Brendan made a friend. The were not to bad. Our next stop would be St. Ignace.  We wanted to eat at Clyde's Drive In.  However, after arriving the place was packed.  So we went to B.C. Pizza again.  After lunch we made our way to Castle Rock as we were not able to climb it on o...

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...
