BRRR
Saturday, started out quite chilly, with frost on the seats

I am guessing
""hotel rally'"
. . . are not cuss words

St. Hedweg Church in Thorp, WI
is undergoing a complete renovation and restoration

Opened in 1907,
St. HedwigÔÇÖs held masses and events for over sixty years
until it was closed down in 1970.
For forty years it sat dormant, set for destruction
this church is rumored to be one of the most acoustically perfect building in the midwest,

2011 and 2012 I lead the bikes with the knobby tires
