(Just posting to keep the silence from getting too deafening, much to say but I'm too tired to say it.)
Good holiday weekend, but now I'm exhausted. I basically seized every day until they started seizing me back: rode Friday (Towpath), Saturday was "brick day" (yoga, gym, Jacobsburg), Sunday I drove down to Michaux to meet the campers (of course we rode), and yesterday was towpath/Sals. Each of those days included a night out too, with Saturday (semi-"virtual pub" BBQ) and Sunday (camping) nights involving fire and copious amounts of alcohol. It was an awesome weekend, and maybe I'll talk more about it, but not right now. Today was a total rest day -- no ride, no exercise, and I'm going to bed in a few minutes... Dinner was leftover camping food.
Michaux pictures are posted, by the way.

Awwwwwwwww.....Jorge & Joan's dog is so affectionate. What a sweetie!
Boy, Joe and Greg showed some great balance in their bike stunts! I can see myself trying that...........NOT!
Is that particular snake poisonous? Is that what happened to the Dead Woman in the Hollow? LOL
Sounds like that ride was somewhat challenging.......but all of you made it. Good for you!
Such nice pics of the group and Joe and Cindy together.
You sure don't have time for boredom, Donny Don. I'd say you earned that day of rest.
FYI, just in case you're interested. Several results from a Men's Health poll:
WORST LIGHT BEER
Samuel Adams Light (12 oz. bottle)
124 calories
10 g carbs
Not a bad beer, but don't think you can sit around sipping these for four quarters without eventually paying the price in belly fat. With tasty beers like
Beck's 64-calorie Premier Light readily available, why throw away 60 calories every time you twist the top?
--------------
WORST BEER
Sierra Nevada Stout (12 oz. bottle)
210 calories
20 g carbs
A full-flavored beer, no doubt, but one that packs a hefty caloric
wallop. Switching out a sixer a week for a lighter beer would save you 9 pounds of extra flab this year. Cheers to that!
--------------------
WORST "HEALTHY" DRINK
Glaceau Vitamin Water (20 oz. bottle)
130 calories
33 g sugar
Vitamins and water might sound like the ultimate nutritional tag team, but what the label doesn't say is that a bottle of this stuff carries nearly as much sugar and calories as a can of Coke. Makes sense, though, since this so-called functional beverage is produced by our often-sugar-crazy friends at The Coca-Cola Company.

Worst Energy Drink
ROCKSTAR ORIGINAL (16 oz. can)
Energy drink makers might feign a level by fortifying their products with a cocktail of vitamins and minerals, but don't be fooled: any minimal benefit they might provide is snuffed out by the blanket of sugar and calories each can contains. Want energy? Try a cup of home-brewed black tea. It has nearly zero calories and contains a deluge of disease-fighting antioxidants.

The Worst Drink in America
BASKIN-ROBBINS LARGE HEATH BAR SHAKE
2,310 calories
108 g fat (64 g saturated)
266 g carbs
73: The number of ingredients that go into this milkshake.
66: The number of teaspoons of sugar this drink contains.
11: The number of Heath Bars you would have to eat to equal the number of calories found in one Baskin-Robbins Large Heath Bar Shake.
12: The average number of minutes it takes to consume this drink.
240: The number of minutes you'd need to spend on a treadmill, running at a moderate pace, to burn it off.
There were more results, but I know I've already taken up enough space on your blog.
