I traveled to Aaron and Megans wedding this weekend.
It kind of felt like a MTU Nordic reunion.


AJ, Harvcat, Olson, Kevin, myself and Karl. (all teammates at some point)


Walking to the end of the Ludington pier.

Superior Bike Fest Crit




Fun turns. It can get a little sketchy in the pack.





4th in the Crit. 1rst in the 55m road race. Raced with a lot of heart but not a lot of smart. Did not work on day one but I lucked out on day 2.

Kayaking with Chris and Kelly in Lower Harbor.


Ran into my boss and his son. (a boat traffic jam)







Having some fun with Photoshop




Some baby birds on Gaines Rock

Summer construction season 2008; First Pipe. Yes the public does hate us!


Should be a little less hectic summer. Last summer I was on about 5mill worth of projects. This summer only about 2. I miss the excitement and adrenaline, but not the 65 hour weeks!!!


It occured to me that what seperates some boys from men is the size of their sandbox.


Making sure my plans turn into a finished product and all the administrative stuff that goes with it. yeah... that is what i do for a living during the summer.

June is here and the weather is starting to feel a lot like summer!!
Yes, that does make me excited!


Attempting to fake a candid photo.... nice try!

Isle Royale 2008. Great trip. What a team.

I jokingly said on the first day that someday someone will convince me I had a good time. No such convincing needed. I had great time!
