Last weekend was Memorial Day and the temps got well into the 90?｢どｨび｢s, it?｢どｨび｢s summer time! This time of year is pronounced "summa" time in Northern New England, where I grew up, like "ca" for car or wicked "pissa" for wicked pisser. The wicked good holiday weekend involved lots of bike riding, BBQ and good times with friends. Sadly my wife Kathleen had to work on Memorial day and missed out on some fine BBQ. Thanks Josh for the delicious pork chops. Here are a few other people I would like to thank for making the kick-off to summer a memorable one:
Philly soft pretzels
Peanut Butter Kandy Kakes
Elk, thanks for the fresh Philly soft pretzels and Iron City on Saturday Fairhill ride.
Fat Marc, thanks for a fine location to consume Philly soft pretzels after chasing Elk around Fairhill for 4+ hours.
Amy and Diane, thanks for entertaining Kathleen on the fun trails of White Clay and Middle Run.
Tijuana Taco Shop, thanks for making the best beef chimichas I?｢どｨび｢ve ever had. TTS is my favorite restaurant in Wilmington.
TTS?｢どｨび｢s Mariachi Singer, dude you rule, and you dress quite impressively.
Buddy B., thanks for coordinating the fine MTB ride at Granouge.
The duPont Family, thanks for being so damn rich and allowing a few lucky MTB'ers to ride on your estate.
Miller Brewing Co., thanks for making High Life.
State Line Liquors, thanks for selling 30 packs of High Life for $12, and stocking Troegs Nugget Nectar.
Matt C., thanks for discovering that drinking a High Life while eating a Strawberry Tasty Kake breakfast bar tastes like a Lambic.
The Yozells, thanks for the fantastic idea to take a dip in Brandywine Creek.
Tasty Kake, thanks for making delicious baked goods, especially Peanut Butter Kandy Kakes.
Kathleen, my Wife, thanks for taking me out to dinner at Tijuana Taco Shop, baking a mean batch of brownies, and putting up with all of my foolish antics. You are the best, Sweetie Puff.
