Less than a year, and we got to go abroad again! I onced asked my dad about his ethnicity, and he said he was a European mutt. When I dug deeper, he explained that we were part Belgian, French and English. Just by chance those were the three countries ... Read more >

The day dawned cool and clear – not a cloud in the sky, although it got pretty cold last night. After coffee and oatmeal I hit the trail at 9:00am, mostly downhill to Summitville, the EPA Superfund Site (old mining operation) and ghost town. The few ... Read more >

Walked down to the shopping plaza this morning to pick up some milk for the weeties and allbran. I was out of the house by 6.30am and, although I guess it was fairly early on a day of rest, I was just a tad surprised to see no one else on the ... Read more >

At 4:30am, the Roadrunner taxi van will pick me up and whisk me away to LAX. To say that I am anxious is putting it mildly. I am fairly certain that the continuous raise in blood pressure that I'm sure to experience over the next 36 hours will take five ... Read more >
