Here's what we've been up to lately:
Last weekend we went to Palmyra to visit the Hill fam for mother's day weekend. We got there on Friday afternoon and while Kelly ran around with her mom, I took off on an overnight camping trip. I loaded my gear into my new trailer and rode up to the shore of Lake Ontario. It was a nice ride through rolling hills of farms and pastures and then finally apple orchards.
My bike ready to go
My rustic campsite. I was the only person in a tent and, from what I could tell, the only person who didn't actually live at the campground on a somewhat permanent basis. Even after 15+ years, my tent is still going strong.
The (somewhat junky looking) lighthouse at Sodus Point. It was a little early in the year, so the beach was closed and the little touristy downtown looked a little closed up and sad.
We also made a stop at the lilac festival in Rochester. For those of you wondering why we took a picture in front of a Japanese maple at a lilac festival, it's because they had a hard frost about a week before the festival and it burned all of the flowers off and there wasn't much to look at.
This week Kelly is in Utah, making the rounds and visiting her sister who had a baby a little while back. I went to the air show at Andrews Air Force base yesterday and saw the Blue Angels, some trick pilots and a demonstration of the F-22 (possibly one of the cooler planes I've ever seen). I got sunburned in strange places (under my chin?) from looking up at the sky all day.
