A Skateboard!

I suppose the big change this week is that I’ve added a bunch of pictures from trips that Heidi and I have taken over the past year. I’ve also changed some of the back-end to allow me to add new categories and pictures quite easily. Hopefully, you will see a lot more picture updates than I have been doing. Hey! Guess what I got? A skateboard. I was out this week to the local park here in Waltham with a couple of ramps and a tonne of funboxes and various street stuff. This week, I hope to get over to Framingham which has a 12 foot vert ramp as well as a 6 foot “mini” that is 32 feet weide … Should be lots of fun. We’re continuing on our search for the house, but we haven’t found anything yet. Smile!

Parry Sound and Back

Has it ever been hectic? Since getting back from the bike trip, Heidi and I have had people over several times as well as going up to Maine to Jen’s graduation. This past weekend, we drove ten hours from Boston up to Parry Sound and enjoyed a wonderful and relaxing time up at Heather and Craig’s cottage. I heard it rained all weekend here in Boston, but we were able to just sit out on the dock and soak up the sun as well as waterskiing and swimming at the cottage. Ten hours is a long way to go for the weekend, but it was definitely worth the drive and I would do it again. Check back next week to see the new functionality I’m working on. It will allow me to easily upload the pictures from all these events so that you can “see” what is actually happening … Smile.

Safely Home

As I missed a week there, I suppose I should let everyone know that we did make it home safely from our Blue Ridge Parkway trip. I could go on and on about how awesome the roads were, but suffice to say that I have driven my motorbike from coast to coast and I have never driven on roads this good. One of the incredible things is that there are hundreds of miles of twisties with as many as 318 turns in 11 miles. Do the math on that one for a moment. The trip chewed my back tire down to one bald slick and now I have to get that in for a replacement some time. This past weekend, Heidi and I were up in Maine at Jen’s graduation. Woo hoo Jen. Congratulations!!
