Family Tree - Tomato Head Knoxville - November 2009

Heat wave for fall break

We pulled the Scamp to the Florida panhandle.  It was hot and humid but it was fun to get away.

USPro Championships

We traveled to Greenville, SC for the USPro Cycling Championships.  Photos here of David Zabriskie (Garmin) and Tom Zirbel (Bissell) in the TT.  DZ won easily, covering the 20.7 mile course in 39'37".  George Hincapie (Columbia-HTC) won the next day's road race.  Photos here of DZ and Zirbel at the TT.  Also of DZ, who rode solo for the first half of the road race, building a 3 minute+ gap and of Hincapie and Bajadali (Kelly Benefits) at the crucial 300 meter mark before the finish.

Mount Rogers Trip, July 2009

Just got back from Mount Rogers, VA, including Grayson Highlands State Park.  First trip for the Scamp!  Here are a few photos.

to western states, part VIII, Flagstaff

We stayed with Aunt Bonnie and Uncle James for a couple of nights.  We ate great food, talked a lot, walked the edges of Mt. Elden in the mornings, and listened to the trains all night.

to western states, part VII, to Arizona

Orville woke up to the Colorado once again, on the day we would leave for Flagstaff.  We took a quick trip through nearby Arches National Park (in the photo, the Double Arch), passed by Monument Valley, and drove on to Flagstaff during the late afternoon.
