The summer started with the usual projects including putting the boats in, and getting the water going (including the pump for the garden). New projects included a new water filter…

Spring Fling
Saturday, June 13, I rode in the Spring Bike Fling bike ride from Walker to Hackensack and back. My back and hip was a little achy in the morning. I did some stretching and rode my bike a little and pushed on. I met my brothers Mike & Scott at Scott’s cabin. Scott was moving…

Early to bed and early to rise we were up to watch the sun’s first peek over the rim of Bryce Canyon. It was a crisp 44 degrees in the morning but it was worth it to see the sunrise and the glow on the hoo doos. We went to the lodge and had some…

Saturday night and Sunday morning we stayed at the Weatherford Hotel in Flagstaff, AZ. I knew there would be noise at the hotel but I did not think it would be that bad. There was a band in the basement bar and we were on the second floor. It sounded like they were playing right…
