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 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...
