Found our way

Finally the end of the trail...we were just riding along seemed like we were going in cirlces...we were...ended up on Grand River St...which I don't think was part of the trail...but we did find a nice place to eat...bonus...I have no idea how we got where we got but it's a good thing Mark had a GPS on his phone...which worked much better then Don's Becker I might add...finally we made it back to the trail...laughing all the way....
As always what would a bike trip be with out a few feedings along the way...and there was ice cream at the end of the trail....

I think Brenda liked today's biking alot better...the 21 miles we rode today were a piece of cake compared to last week's 25 on the Polly Ann...I love this trail!!
What is biking with out the snack's along the way...can you believe all the food Brenda ate...and we topped it off with a Dairy Queen Blizzard...Yummmmy

Polly Ann

We did it...25 miles on the Polly Ann Trail today...so... John's say's this morning, Just how hard could a trail named "Polly Ann" be...well I'm here to tell you it was not a cupcake of a trail and it was surely not the trail to take first time riders on...I'm so sorry Brenda but you were a trooper and I'm PROUD OF YOU...biking really is a lot of fun and we did have a lot of snacks to eat along the way....and you did look really cute on your new bike...do you still love me....
I'd really like to give you a little hug good bye but your just to sweatie...

Our first feeding 2 miles into the trip at the Red Knaps in downtown Oxford...


Go

Go Brenda Go...
It's ok...sometimes you just need to get off and walk...

Your almost there...you were like the little engine who could...


dinner

The cow's were getting a little nervous when John and Gary stated talking T-Bone steaks...

sweet treat

There's always a sweet treat at the end of the trail...our reward for riding 25 miles!

The new normal

Here we are...the so called "New normal"...but there's nothing new or normal about sin and divorce and what it does to a family and the loss we feel when a sister-in-law I have loved, and still love, can no longer be a part of your family gatherings. There's a saying that say's...Sin will take your further than you ever wanted to stray, it will keep you longer than you ever wanted to stay, and it will cost you more than you ever dreamed you would pay but new and normal it is not!!!! So here we are with smiles on our faces but deep sorrow in our hearts. I love you family and I am proud of you!

Me

Me sitting under and on my Mother's day present...Happy Mother's day to me!!!!

Cherish

This say's it all...Cherish...and they are Cherished...
