Betty Needs a New Pair of Shoes
Pro rider climbing 4000 feet on I-8 through the lower Rockies in his yellow safety vest. Crazy, but I-8 is the least elevation for a bike route across those mountains and into the desert. GPS showed 60 miles to the
Red Hot and Blue
Another great night’s sleep on natural latex and we were up early with the Blue Angels’ Saturday morning practice session. There’s nothing like coffee and a private stunt jets show to start the day. Eric’s routine is Sheri’s surreal. It

Maritime Musings
