Hey Mambo, Mambo Italiano...

Big bear has been a blast. Just wanted to add a quick post to say thanks to my great hosts Simeon and Dana. Apparently I now have part shares in a Restaurant in Big Bear - Cafe Mambo (just kidding!). One of the things that I loved best about Big Bear (aside from the awesome people) was the chance to do some outdoor activities. I not only did a little mountain biking around the lake (taking it easy drafting behind Simeon), but also two hikes up to Cougar Crest. It was fantastic to join the hiking crew (Ron, Kim, Mark, Simeon and Dana) up the hills (not sure if my huffing and puffing was altitude or fitness?).
