The Utah Parks in all their glory

Tony & I decided we hadn't see the Utah Parks so after
Las Vegas we left beautiful Lake Mead and travelled
to Utah. We have spent two to three days in each park
and loved them all. After we visit Arches we will head to
our Habitat Build in Mankato, Minnesota May 4th for two
weeks, then to Chicago to visit our son Mike and maybe give
my Computer Hard Drive some tender loving care. So stay tuned.

Keep tuned for Tony's adventure bike ride this summer a fund raiser
for Millard Fuller's Center for Housing. It will either be here or
we will get him a dedicated blog of his own.
Mighty Zion National Park


Then there is Bryce, again, beautiful and different


I want you to know that we hiked Bryce Canyon

600 feet down into the canyon and back up the switch

backs covered in ice, 3 miles in 3 hours what an adventure.

Then on our way to Capitol Reef National Park


And Arches National Park, what beauty and an engineering marvel. I hope you will last forever but we will appreciate you for as long as you stand.

Thanks Kim for the reminder to put in a picture of Arches National Park.

On to our Habitat Build in Mankato MN
Retirement is great and giving back is greater!

August 8 The End of a Perfect Ride!

Thanks for hanging in there for Tony, he made the Atlantic and dipped his front tire into the water. The bikers were overjoyed to be at the finish line, but this is just the beginning of a lifelong commitment for them to help others and spread the word! Final statistics for Tony’s bike trip across America Total days: 56 Total biking days: 45 Average miles per day: 75 Total miles: 3322 Less truck driving days and breakdowns (broken spokes, etc): 404 Miles biked by Tony: 3017 (probably among the top 3) Total broken spokes by Tony: 5 Total broken spokes by everyone else: 0 Total flats by Tony: about 13 Total flats by everyone else: unknown – one person only had 3 Total money raised to date: $5,088 which means somewhere in the Democratic Republic of the Congo an entire house will be built with the funds raised by my friends and relatives – THANK YOU!
