Bank Robbers by Bike

Joplin — Neighbors and bank customers helped police nab one of two men suspected of robbing a bank and making their getaway, such as it was, on bicycles.

Goes to show you that even criminals are interested in staying fit...

What Mary, Hunter and I have been upto.

Still just as handsome as he was when just a pup..........but



getting that gray beard look, He's late 30's according to the realationship of dog age and human age.





He helped me build this with moral support.

and he made sure the ice was safe for us to skate on. It took him about 45 min to even get 5 feet off shore but once he did him and I walked around way out in the middle and it became a daily ritual to pee, poop and go out on the ice for a short walk. (Ice is bad now 2-21-07).


Our part of the lake.

Hunter as a pup

OK...Here are the pics I promised of Hunter as a pup...The 1st one is w/ the boys on the front porch in VA before we moved. The 2nd one is of him in the back yard by the walkway. The 3rd is with Ben the Cat. Notice how small he was next to Ben. I think all of these are from when he was less than 10 weeks old... Chad, he looks alot different now doesn't he?

Tour of California 2007!

From San Fran to Long Beach the route looks pretty good this year. Too bad I am going to miss it this year. Weather in Denver has been tough this year for riding, so I will be viewing from the trainer in the basement...Thomas probably already has 1K in his legs so far...

Chad seems to be shrinking...down to 150. Lets hope he has kept his strength up for this summer's tour back east in Hershey...We will be there in August & hopefully in fighting shape ourselves!!!

20 year reunion this summer...I don't feel that old???

More to come on that one...
