Memorial Day Cookouts to Remember

Memorial Day is a time to remember our fallen. Many use this weekend as an official start to Summer with a cookout.

My wife has always joked, because of my love of using a grill to cook (I don’t know of any other way). She calls it Mike’s Bar and Grill and even got a glass and tray made with the title. It’s at our home.

Our family and neighbors have opined that what I produce on the grill is really good. I thought so but to me, it never had that steakhouse flavor. So, I was looking for a way to up my game.

I found it.

Now you can do it too with the Schwank 1500 Degree Portable Infrared Grill

Only the best steakhouses use infrared technology to cook the juiciest steaks. The Schwank Grill company has been providing top steakhouses with their grills for over 40 years. Now they’re available to consumers.

PERFECTLY SEARED
Searing your steak at extreme temperatures of 1500 degrees F produces a delicious golden brown crust on both sides without overcooking the inside. Traditional grills only reach up to 600 degrees. More than double that is the secret to steakhouse taste.

INCREDIBLY JUICY
Extreme temperatures generate a “Maillard Reaction” causing amino acids to react with sugars to intensify flavor and produce the juiciest steak you’ve ever tasted.

READY IN MINUTES
More heat means less time from the grill to your mouth. Your steak is ready in as little as 3 minutes depending on thickness and your desired doneness.

Schwank Grills are proudly Made in the USA.

Rest is Good for You

By R. Michael Brown, Freelance Writer

#Cycling rest day for me. From my days as a coach at the U.S. Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs… the most important part of training is rest.

I can really feel my legs and the soreness after 6 straight days of cycling. I’m just spinning, not pushing, but the cumulative days add up.

Since it’s raining all day here in Lake Placid, it’s a perfect day to rest.

Will still do a rehab upper body workout to keep my shoulder replacement limber and getting stronger.

Seaweed Invasion Town of Palm Beach 2019

Disturbing Footage of Seaweed Overtaking this Popular Beach!

So far it’s not as bad as 2019 in Palm Beach County. But, it’s pretty bad. The Sargassum bloom is out of control again. This is in Ocean Ridge, Florida.

Sargassum is a seaweed that can accumulate along the shoreline in large amounts, making the shoreline inaccessible for swimming, boating, and other recreational activities. This beach seaweed overflow is happening again.

If you live near the coast and have experienced the beach seaweed overflow in the past, then you already know what to do! Be sure to check out our site for more information on this and other coastal issues!

See the feature story I did in 2019 when it was really bad in Florida, the Caribbean, and South and Central American coasts:

#1 Bicycle Racer in the World Still on Track for Tour de France Race After Crash

April 28, 2023

Tadej Pogačar’s six-week program of recovery from his Liège-Bastogne-Liége crash and injury may still include a spell of altitude training from mid-May to early June, Belgian newspaper Het Laatste Nieuws reports.

After a busy and highly-successful first part of the season, the Slovenian star had always planned to use the next two months as his build-up for the 2023 Tour de France, with a repeat of just one stage race, the low-key Tour of Slovenia, on his program prior to July.

There had been fears that the scaphoid fracture (wrist) caused by his crash in Liège-Bastogne-Liège could have seriously affected that process.

But according to the Belgian newspaper report, citing team sports manager Joxean Fernandez Matxín, Pogačar could yet be training as planned at an altitude camp by mid-May.

On his way to another Tour de France win even with this setback?

2023 Resolution

I’m opening a gym called “Resolutions.” It will have exercise equipment for the first two weeks and then it turns into a bar and restaurant for the rest of the year.
