Grew up in "da Pearl" myself, but not sure how it went from Glendale to Mount Pearl ... ? http://www.mtpearl.nf.ca/ourcity.asp

Hey
Folks

......I already have my route planned. Although we have no real mountains here, we have sever places named "Mount". I have chosen Kierstead Mountain, which is somewhat of a mountain, with lots of small brooks, and such. A real nice spot. I will get some pictures.

The 11th happens to fall on the weekend of my 40th birthday (UGH!!!! yes I said it), so a couple of friends and i are gonna make it a camping trip. Stay overnight, roughing it, as the chosen place is all wilderness...Now I am all excited. It makes the big 40 a little more bearable...The misses refuses to go camping, so I now have to see how many beer I can fit in my saddlebags.....LOL...My actual birthday is the 14th, so i will be home then, to do the cake thing with the family. Grin

cheers

Michael

What about parking the bike next to the mill, scratch a piece of paper with "Kropatchek mountan" and stick it to the mill wall? Wink

That would be the highest mountain in the Benelux area!!! Shocked

Take care,

I guess I'll head to "Welcome Mountain" a non-descript hillside, about 25 miles west in Mineral Wells, Texas that used to have a Welcome sign on it when I was a kid.It is in the middle of the downtown area. One of my ex-Mother-in-laws lived on top of Welcome mountain so it hasn't been too welcoming for me. The only other "mountain" fairly close is Commanche Peak, Glen Rose, Texas and they have built a Nuclear power plant there.
