Deep Creek Lake-SavageMan Triathlon

Deep Creek Lake-SavageMan Triathlon. Ever wonder how people gain the mental strength to endure three physically challenging sports events combined into one race? Come witness for yourself the SavageMan Triathlon hosted this weekend at Deep Creek Lake, Maryland.”Whether you believe you can, or you cannot, you are right” comes to mind as I try to conceive how the human mind and body can push itself to this level of competition. When’s the last time you swam, biked, and then ran Olympic distances over the mountainous terrain we have here in Garrett County? My answer to this question is never!

Check out the schedule for this Saturday and Sunday and make time to cheer on these elite athletes who will blow your mind and maybe inspire you to get in shape. Surely we can all pick up the pace in our athletic lives by pulling inspiration from these warriors.

Check out the differences between the two big races this weekend…

SavageMan 70.0 mile triathlon-1.2 mile swim, 55.7 mile bike, 13.1 mile run

SavageMan 30.0 mile Triathlon-0.9 mile swim, 22.9 mile bike, 6.2 mile run

42nd Annual Wisp Labor Day Sale-Wisp Outdoors Sale 2012

42nd Annual Wisp Labor Day Sale-Wisp Outdoors Sale 2012. This weekend is very exciting because it is the famous annual Rudy’s Wisp Labor Day Sale and Wisp Outdoors Sale! My phone has been blowing up with calls from clients wanting to get a big jump on competing shoppers for the mega blowout sale. In my best used car salesman voiceJ, “the deals are crazzzzy!”

Rudy’s will be hosting their 42^nd Annual Labor Day Sale in Wisp’s Lodge from Friday, August 31^st through Monday, September 3^rd and I can’t reiterate enough the savings you will receive on skis, snowboards, winter apparel, and the list goes on and on. I’m talking discounted warehouse prices on last year’s inventory. No joke! People who have experienced this sale before put it on their yearly schedule and are first in line to fill up their arms with mountains of winter sports gear.

Hours are:

Friday- 9am-8pm

Saturday-9am-8pm

Sunday- 9am-6pm

Monday -9am-4pm

Questions call 301-387-4640 or email info@rudysatwisp.com.

Wisp Outdoors also has an annual sale that equally compares to the Rudy’s sale! They take their demo and rental paddleboards, kayaks, and canoes at the end of every season and sell them over the Labor Day Weekend at discounted rates. There are a lot of people literally counting down the seconds until this sale starts so they can pounce on this sought after recreational gear. Get there early and scoop up a deal! Remember that this is the best time of the season (in my opinion) to enjoy these sports on the lake. It’s warm, calm and glassy this time of year…

Deep Creek Lake-Wakeboarding

Deep Creek Lake-Wakeboarding. As summer winds down and the kids start to get back to school, there is still time to enjoy one of my favorite summer sports without the mid-summer traffic normally on the lake. The boats on the lake become a little more sporadic helping in producing optimum wakeboard conditions which are no wake and pure glass. There is nothing more exciting than getting up on a wakeboard and having the perfect mirror lake reflecting the mountains off the water while doing 20 or so miles per hour. You don’t have to bust big airs to feel the stoke of wakeboarding. Just kick back with your friends and family and enjoy the experience. I often hear people saying, “Wow, I can’t believe summer is over already” or “summer flies by faster and faster each year as you get older”. Make it a priority to enjoy every moment you can with your family and friends in this gift of life that we are all fortunately given. Take my advice and put wakeboarding on your list of to-do’s in late summer, and find the treasures of memories that are awaiting you and your family.

Deep Creek Lake-Perseid Meteor Shower

Deep Creek Lake-Perseid Meteor Shower. Last night I took my camera and tripod out on the back porch trying to catch a photo of the much anticipated perseid meteor shower that has been all over the news this week. Skies were crystal clear, which made me very hopeful of catching this event using long exposure photography techniques. My eyes took about ten minutes to adjust and to finally get an in-depth view of the billions stars of the Milky Way that exploded overhead. I bumped up my ISO’s and reduced my aperture and focused in on the 219 bridge below with the sky playing background to this special event. Time and time again I randomly pulled the trigger on the camera hoping to be lucky enough to catch a meteor screaming across the sky at light speed. Like clockwork, as soon as the camera finished shooting the shot I would see a brilliant light but MISSING THE SHOWER PHOTO! It was cat and mouse all night trying to get just one photo. At the end of the night the mouse got away with the cheese and I was left with only the memories of this fantastic event and a lot of pictures of airplanes that littered the skies all night. I tried to convince myself that the airplane pics may have been a meteor photo but the dotted red lights where a dead giveaway that I failed. I have one more opportunity tonight to redeem myself and catch one image. Either way, I will be thankful to have another opportunity to do what I did as a child growing up and that is to lie on my back and stare up at the stars with childhood wonder trying to imagine where the universe starts and stops, if there is other life out there, and if the universe goes on for infinity, then what’s after that…?

DAY TWO UPDATE…After clocking 6 + hours of wonderful sky watching, I finally got a few photo’s showing bits of the meteor show! See below my best two efforts… I hope you didn’t miss the show!
