I wonder how many people have to change their shorts after seeing that!!! Yikes!
2 years agoJust as I got there, he took a stab at something to his right, but came up empty. As soon as my camera was out, he was motionless like this for a while - I'm sure you're right.

2 years agoSharon and I are enjoying your posts. We sat Fixture yesterday to watch the Brewers play the Pirates in Pittsburgh. We have a friend who always says "look for people you know!" when we're watching sports. We didn't see you. But the Brewers won after a rain delay!
2 years agoGlad you found the cut through! Enjoy the 14 miles of the WMRR leaving Hancock. Then you are back on the C&O and likely back to muddy/messy!
By comparison, you will love the GAP! I did it West to East in 2 days in 2021, it was awesome. My wife and were out in West Newton/Cedar Creek Park area biking a few weekends ago, it was in great shape out there.
John Pescatore, thanks so much! Turns out I'm not a C&O purist! It rained pretty hard mid-day, so the trail was super-muddy and messy. Being able to hop off and do the last 10 miles to Hancock on that beautiful PAVED path was amazing! If I'm ever in your neighborhood again (or you're in Denver) I'd love to buy you a beer. Many thanks!

Yes, we were told to avoid going out. Not a day to exercise outdoors.
2 years agoAir quality seems ok so far. Is Milwaukee bad right now?
2 years agoYeah, I should refer to it as a skill.
I hope your path avoids the bad air quality from the Canadian wildfires.
