What a fun summer we had!
Worked a lot and played a lot. So sad it's over!
Here are some pics from our summer excursions. Above was a fun day at Sunskipper. Thanks Jimmy Keith for making me an amazing surfboard and Robbie Johnson at Surf Carolina Magazine for risking being run over :)
Below are some of our Mountain Bike trips to The White Water Center trails in Charlote.
With the water and weather cooling off, we'll be using these memories to keep us motivated to get outside and enjoy what is probably our favorite season. Fall brings great surf and perfect trail riding conditions. No ticks, snakes and heat strokes mountain biking. Good, powerful ground swells in the water.
Again, we are so thankful God has given us health and allowed us to live in such a wonderful place!
This amazing trail flows around a man made whitewater course in Charlotte, NC. The singletrack is twisty and superfun, with some rocks and jumps thrown in at just the right places. A purpose built mountain Bike trail in the middle of a big city.
What about this sign? Often times Mountain Bikers are told what they can not do and where they can not ride. Finally a sign warning others to watch out for bikes...kind of funny but a needed sign, as speeds at this trail get pretty high, over 25mph over hardpacked, flowy singletrack. Add the occasional blind corner and you have a recipe for disaster if hikers don' t pay attention.
I think this was the last time I surfed without some kind of neoprene on my body this year :(
Fall chilly weather and colder water temperatures had me reaching for a wetsuit top the day after this picture was taken.
We hope our patients had a great summer as well! Enjoy your fall and don't let the colder temperatures keep you inside!
