Long time between posts

Some of yesterdays ride group

Marathon start!

Big Crowd of Runners!

Yup, Long time between posts, mainly because there is not that much going on.
Played Some golf, cut some grass, rode the bike a bit and that's about it.
I did go on a ride with the Ottawa HOG yesterday, real nice day.
We were 9 bikes and a did a tour of the seaway valley from, Manotick to Cornwall where we had a real nice lunch on the seaway, to Brockville and home. All in all about 250 miles, BIG ride.
This morning I was off to the 7am start of the Ottawa Marathon, big crowd of runners as you can see from the attached pictures. Of course the Black African runners are in the front and will lead all of the way, win and finish in about 2 hours 10 minutes, good fun stuff.
Other than that I have been fighting the wildlife around the house. I had a Robin insisting on building a nest on my back porch light. I took the nest down 3 times before I finally installed spikes to deter the little bugger. This morning I was up in my attic placing mouse poison, I seem to have a bit of a problem with these little buggers again.
I also am ragging war with the Black Squirrels. The neighbors claim they are not feeding them but I have lots of broken peanut shells around and an over abundance again of these destructive little buggers.
Little buggers, all of these creatures seem to be big time destructive!
