ACUI San Antonio – A Little Taste of Texas, Part Five
April 4-17 We met Roberta and Mark at Mellow Johnny’s as planned and spent a bit more time there perusing the stock, particularly the attractive jersey’s and short combinations (kits) offered. Unfortunately like most good bike clothing, they were a bit more than I wanted to spend at that time. I instead opted for a […]
ACUI San Antonio – A Little Taste of Texas, Part Three
April 4-17 Late in the week we’d connected with Dave again and arranged to meet at their place on Saturday to ride our bikes on the north section of the Salado Creek Greenway. We arrived late in the morning and after unloading the bikes from the car took off to ride the few blocks to […]
ACUI San Antonio – A Little Taste of Texas, Part Two
April 4-17 The weather cleared up briefly the next day giving us an opportunity to catch a bike ride, get the car washed and then later meet up with an old friend. It had been warm and muggy when we arrived the night before and this continued on into the next day, so after breakfast […]
Holiday 2014 – Encinitas Revisited

Holiday 2014 – Los Angeles – Time to Connect with the Past, Part Two

Holiday 2014 – The Last House on the Dirt Road off the County Road – Part 2
January 8-12, 2015 On Saturday, with a visit to Grants Pass for dinner scheduled for the evening, Joanna and I took our bikes out for a ride down to Selma and back. It was cold, but not uncomfortably so, and the work of cycling warmed us up after a time. We’d originally thought about taking […]
Holiday 2014 – Lost in the Lost Coast
January 5-8, 2015 With the kids off to work, I took the Toyota to a nearby dealer for service, finished up and then Joanna and I departed for Mary and Norm’s house in Lower Lake, Ca. We’ve visited this beautiful location a number of times and always look forward to a few peaceful days on […]
Holiday 2014 – A Closer Look at Downtown Oakland
January 1-4, 2015 After dinner at Rivoli we returned to the apartment for a quiet New Year’s Eve, watching a movie and waiting for midnight and the start of what should be another great year for our family. The next day, after a relaxing morning, Kris and I made our way over to Walter’s to […]
