Man Tripping News

beulah-beach-smWell folks, we are here in chilly but gorgeous Northern Michigan - Beulah to be exact and we couldn't have been welcomed better than by emerging from the drizzle that we followed all the way from Chicago. Litterally the moment we passed by Mukeegan the clouds parted, the rain stopped and the sun started shining. By the time we got to Beulah where we are staying it was sunny with high level clouds that prepared the way for a great sun set over Crystal Lake.

This is certainly a different land up here, the land is hilly and at least where we are, the dunes drop sharply into the lake area forming a panorama around Crystal Lake that reminds me something of the lakes in upstate New York - though on a much smaller scale.

tour-de-cure Man Trips don't have to be just about having fun and spending time with the guys, they can also be educational or even help others by contributing to your community, raising money, or just simply raising awareness about important issues.

One great way to do this, while also planning a great mancation is to visit Chicago and participate in the annual Bike the Drive event - as part of the Chicago leg of the American Diabetes Association's Tour de Cure. If you would like to help me raise money, please click on the Tour de Cure image to visit my fundraising page.

Last year was my first year taking part in this great event, and despite the fact that I had to wake up before dawn, drive to Chicago in pouring rain, and ride in wet clothes, I had a BLAST and so did my wife.
