Our Adventures Continue...

I biked about 20 miles.

My beautiful first-born is 37 years old today. I am so fortunate and happy to have him in my life. Bill, I wish you many more special years of growth and happiness. And thank you for wife Molly and grandkids Liam and Rhys

Happy Mothers Day from son Bill, daughter-in-law Molly and great kids Liam and Rhys from Twnsburg, Ohio Thanks for your love...

Well Tony and his friend Bob decided to go to NYC for some biking...take a look!

Well here we are, home for the summer. We rushed home so that we could get Mike's house ready to sell. We would like it gone by the end of summer. There is lots of work to be done and I hope we are up to the task again. We already went through this once... Glad to be home, nestled at the in-laws, Mel & Jackie on their 5 acres in Allenton, Michigan. That is our base when we are in town. We will be doing two bike rides and a Habitat Build before heading south again, so stay tuned.

Here is a closer look at Tommy

Guess what! While I was waiting to pick up Tony at the Tennessee River Park I met Karen Hattamer, a homeowner from Marquette. She had a Habitat House built for her in Guinn, Michigan in the UP after her husband died in Iraq. The trace is a beautiful site. We have had such a good time. The hiking is great, seeing history at its best. And ask Tony, he will tell you that the biking is wonderful. From my experience, the Trace is fairly flat and rolling, but I've only done 50 miles.

This Parkway is so great to ride, the hills are small and rolling. It was Sunday and there was more traffic then usual, but it was a great ride.

The Biking is done on the Parkway There is no biking on the old trace. There are hiking and biking trails along the way, and lots of camping sites.

The Mighty Mississippi goes from the Gulf all the way to Wisconsin.
