Thanksgiving Adventure
It’s probably the climate. Thanksgiving was one of my favorite holidays growing up. I think even at a young age I appreciated the simplicity and quietness of the day. In the PNW where I grew up, it was oftentimes rainy, so it was always a cozy holiday, where you would relax around the house while […]

I made it out to the desert yesterday for a little solo bike ride – it’s been a long time since I’ve been out on my own ride, I think the last time was in October. I’ve noticed that over the years the time between each adventure stretches longer and longer, which is a troubling […]
