Spent another couple of days up in the mountains this last weekend. Weather was perfect, as usual for this time of year. We spent Saturday morning at a new spot we found on the Stanislaus River called New McKays Dam, some fun fishing and great swimming holes. Luke unfortunately had a little trouble with the bacon for breakfast (right). Sunday was the main event, however, who could ask for a better birthday present than a day of mountain biking at Kirkwood?! Chairlift up and ride down singletrack all day, heaven…

How did you Photoshop the bacon photo? From my memory the bacon was delicious, you are really handy with that computer and camera.
You just wish you could cook bacon on the BBQ like a true Aussie. You’re almost there mate, almost…
U guys are so crazy… Like crazily extreme, I love the shot of you two wearing matching helmets and glasses… U guys are so cute!

Teebs,
For your info, they are not matching, mine is black and his is grey. His glasses are black and mine are brown, but thanks for your fashion comments. Maybe I should get a hot pink helmet instead?
Hi guys that looks like some serious fun. Combining the whole fishin’ and cycling with the birthday, now dats somethin’ else. Good to see the sun, have not seen that for a while now, but I’m hopin’ for it soon. Keep up the good work and keep sendin’ the photos, I reallly look forward to the next adventure.
