Lemon squeeze

Spent some time at Mohonk. There is 85-odd miles of hiking, with a variety of trails. I'd say the trail leading up to the lemon squeeze is worth the squeeze.

They have decent golf, tennis, boating, horseback riding. They even have a croquet court :-)

Guess what I changed, for 500

I had the opportunity to use Google docs, in a truly collaborative fashion. I'll say its better than many things I've tried.

It auto-saves, which is good. Some of those saves trigger revisions, had to get used to the notion that a revision isn't necessarily anyone's conscious choice of a publishable delta. Top that with wiki-style diffs, whitespace and cross-browser quirks, it can be hard to follow changes.

Auto-save revisions

Some revisions just state "no text added". Fun.

Riding the bike around town

We'll be out in numbers again on October 14th. Join us. nycmsbiketour.org has details.

For first-timers, I'd recommend the 30 mile route. Its all along the water, down the west-side highway and up the FDR.
