Hey Matt,
I am rather new to this website, still have to finish my profile, post a photo, and on and on....but even though I am new to this site, I've already met some great folks.
Glad to hear you are coming to Americade, 2008! We should get together and go for a spin around the area. Since I live here, I know various "off the beaten path" nearby excursions which would give us not only a nice ride, away from the touring masses, but also include some great scenic views of the Adirondacks. Keep me informed regarding your location once you have arrived in the Lake George area. And yes, we will need to send a prayer out to the weather Gods ... can't never tell about what might fall out of the sky in early June around these parts.
Thanks for the positive wishes for my upcoming surgery. I am very excited about it, and am looking forward to getting this phase of my weight loss journey behind me. Having a career in healthcare, I am not worried about the surgery, just anxious to get it done, move forward, and enjoy the benifits of living a healthier, leaner life!
I look forward to future communication with you, be well.
Brad
