Hiya, Watha

It's been so long since I posted a blog I forgot how to log on. Had to reset my password. What a hassle.
Last weekend we finally got to ride the Hiawatha Trail. Google it to see details and what/where. Needles to say, a great time was had by all. Amy, Keri, Charlie, Melissa and Michele all came with, along with Jimmy, Jesse and the boys, and Adrianna. Ten of us in all. It was overcast and cool, but we never actually got rained on. Took about three hours to ride down, what with stopping to read all the markers, eat snacks, etc. Fantastic scenery, high scairy trestles and long scairier tunnels. They ain't kiddin' when they say bring a light. Those tunnels are blacker than the inside of a cow. And cold. And damp. The longest was 1.7 miles, which we had to go through twice. It was our high adventure for the year.
The first picture is Andrew and Tanner at the end of the ride. They'd had enough.
How about those legs, huh? Hey, I'm pale and I'm proud.
