I'm having a very fun time on my honeymoon! We stayed at a lighthouse the first night and the last two nights were at a Scottish B&B in Grand Marais. We've been biking&hiking and relaxing. I'm only on the Internet because our resort (Bluefin Bay) has wifi in the room. Our hike today was yet another hill named pincushion which provided excellent views of the lake and everything around it. It got a little hot, but the bountiful raspberries helped. They were simply everywhere! I'm used to having to hunt for them and on this trail they were every 10-20feet. We went to a campfire sing-along last night and watched the full red moon duck in and out of the clouds. We got to sleep to the sound of crashing waves last night. Very nice. We will try kayaking tomorrow if the waves cooperate, but may do more biking also or instead of. There is an adult swim that starts at 10 PM tonight. Not sure what that involves...I don't think we are THAT open-minded. I'm actually reading and enjoying the first Harry Potter book. I never started the series because I thought it was just for kids and for some reason women (all the women in my life LOVE the series). Now I have seen my folly and will get to read the whole series at as quick a pace as I choose as my lovely new wife has all the books. Off for s'mores and the only free thing so far: a bottle of champagne.

I just read the first book also. I started the second one. I watched the first movie with my kids the other day also. It's a fun book, isn't it.

Today I'm in MEM heading for LFT to do some HOT biking! I've just started book 3 if that's what you refer to. I did hilly sprints yesterday in Bristol TN and it was a lot of fun: max speed 37MPH (on the Dahon!). I love the new pedals.
