Well it has been a busy couple of weeks, traveled to Gaithersburg, MD for work last week. On the last day we had some extra time so we went to Arlington National Cemetery and saw the eternal flame and the tomb of the unknown soldier. Both were very cool, we did catch the end of the changing of the guards, neat experience something everyone should see. After the cemetery we went to see the lincoln memorial and the Vietnam Wall, the wall is so much longer in person than it looks on TV.

Took a bike ride yesterday and today on the Wabash trail. Yesterday we got halfway to the next town Mineola. Today we ended up riding the entire way, ended up being close to 17 miles round trip. Fairly easy ride though, a little up hill halfway there, then it switches to a little downhill. So both directions the hardest part is at the beginning.

New Bike

Since the new house has access to a couple of local trails the wife and I decided to buy a couple of bikes. We picked up Trek 7100 series, she got the WSD frame and I got the regular one of course.


We rode a couple of times over the weekend, first day down the Wabash trail and the next day we rode to Lake Manawa. Was fun, look forward to more rides. You can see the wife's lovely bike here.

Hooray beer!

Well the day has come, finally opened a bottle of the beer a week after bottling.


Man was it tasty, guess the first batch worked out good. Cant wait to make more.
