Full Moon Morning!

I woke up early this morning and felt rested so I got up.  It was around 6:00am.  While getting a fire started I looked out the front window and seen a beautiful full moon.

Had to go out and take this picture.

I was working on laundry when I heard some noise.  Brendan came down and said good morning and let the kittens out.  These kittens are just full of energy!

Yesterday was basketball.  Brendan played real well.  He had several shots, just missing getting his first points of the year.  He is doing so much better than last year.





Michelle's parents made it to the game then we all went to Applebee's after.  After eating Michelle went and did some shopping.  I took Brendan to Dairy Queen for dessert.  We got home and I did some cleaning and got laundry started.  I helped Michelle unload when she got home.  She picked up her new elliptical machine.  She also picked up stuff for Brendan's science project.

After getting everything together we went outside to do Brendan's science project.  He was putting mentos in different types of beverages to test the reactions.  It was fun!



After this excitement I headed for the basement to prepare for the bike Expo And Swap Meet on Sunday (today).  I put together a spread sheet so I know what I have and put prices on it for easy reference and pricing when I get tot he Swap Meet.  I accumulated a lot of stuff over the last year while doing upgrades to bikes.  The Swap Meet is again being held at the Fenton Brewery.  I am meeting Raymond in Birch Run and then we are riding together.  I am also taking some soap to see if I can sell any of that.

Time to make some breakfast and get ready to go.  Enjoy what is to be a very sunny Sunday!

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. ...

Independence Day

Another busy weekend and celebration of our country's independence.  I got a short ride in on Friday morning.  We then were preparing for a wedding.  Barb and Steve, a couple at our church were getting married and the ceremony/reception would be at Dawn and Reuben's house.  Reuben performed the ceremony and I was asked to do the photography.  This worked out great as I had purchased a used Sony DSLR camera on eBay and got to test it out.  It was a very nice ceremony and celebration with our church family and friends.   You may kiss the bride!   We then stuck around and all of us went to the fireworks at the Clio Park to cap off the evening.  We got home late and went right to bed.   I slept in a bit on Saturday morning and got up to watch the start of the Tour de France.  It was a good stage with a sprint finish and a bad crash that took Mark Cavendish out of the race.  I then ventured out on a 23 mile ride o...
