Thanksgiving Break

Here's a snapshot of a typical Thanksgiving break in the Copper Country:

Misery Bay..



Entertained ourselves with some improvised disc golf.. definitely didn't want to overthrow into the lake!





Some sledding on the neighbor's bank.


For some reason I don't see that many sunsets during the wintertime..


The classic bread pizzas, slightly modified

Cyclocross in MQT














Cross Country

Finally remembered to get pics taken at Regionals.
Perfect day for a race.  Great venue; our hotel was literally at the course.



The womens' leaders coming through at 2.5K

The men's leaders

..increasing the gap

There is nothing easy about finishing a 10K, but you have no choice- you've gotta kick.

Overall, a fun season.  Nice to get back at racing after a spring off.

Fall/Halloween

Frosty morning.



Notice the footprints on the frosty grass.


Fall means pumpkins:


And Halloween!
