A Week In The Corn Feilds

We went to Nebraska of 7 days last week to visit friends and family. It was our first time flying with Paige and everything went really well. She basically slept on all the flights except the one coming home last night. She was not a happy camper but after about 30 minutes she went down for the count. It was the first time Paige got to meet her other great grandmother Helen (Paige’s middle name is Helen). It was wonderful and they really enjoyed meeting her.

It was my parents 25th, our 6th, and my Grandparents 60th year wedding anniversaries. So we had a party Nebraska style. Great food, lots of friends and family, and of course a few beers. It was a blast!

Paige was introduced to several new things…tractors, boats, trucks, lots of corn fields, and family all around her give her full attention. It was a wonderful trip!

Shindig On The Green

After dinner we went to shindig on the green for a little entertainment. Local musicians get together and play bluegrass. It’s always a lot of fun. Good beer and BBQ.

Paige All The Time

Sunday, June 18, 2006

Today is my first Fathers Day. Lyn said I could do anything I wanted to today. So I said lets get Paige a baby sitter and go for a good mountain bike ride together in Pisgah. So we did it and what an adventure we had. We got the map out and planned our route. We figured about 2 hours would be good because we wanted to take Paige putt-putt golfing this evening. Well….something changed.

We ended up getting of course and instead of a 2 hour ride it turned into a 4 hour & 45 minute ride. Lyn did forgive me when we finally got back to the car but we were both pretty tired. We ended up not going golfing, but instead went out to eat with some friends. What a great Fathers Day!

The area in blue is where we wanted to go, but we ended up in the area Lyn's pointing to. Four hours later we made it back to the truck.

Trying to find a short cut. Not a good idea.

Sugar Mtn. NORBA Race

I headed over to Showdown at Sugar National Mountain Bike Series #2 today with a friend. It was a great day and my lazy butt was supposed to race in the single speed race but I kind of bailed. Anyway…I met up with and I saw a lot of friends (Frank and Ann Jones, Ryan, Lee, etc..). Great day for racing and the pro short track had a lot of excitement. Ryan ended up with a third place finish and Charlie I believe ended up in the top 20. Here are a few photos from the race.
