Where I've Been all summer

 After my retreat i purchased a cyclocross bicycle to get healthier and enjoy the outdoors, We started to go to kensington park which has a very good paved bike trail every other day. Then we went north to Torch lake and did a group ride. I also went to Grand haven with my daughter for her birthday on the Harley. (I have something for 2 wheels) I went canoeing also down the Shiawassee river. All this time I had a pinched nerve in my lower back that was very painful and made it very difficult to walk but i could ride just fine. It finally left me 2 days ago. 2 months of pain!!!! Well thank God its gone. Here are some pics from all that.
