Years ago, I worked for a corporate division headquartered in Mukilteo, Washington (State). The general manager’s office had a window with a view of the Olympic Mountain Range. It looked out, un impeded, over Puget Sound. When you walked into the office, it was like you were viewing a huge painting. However, the ferry boats […]

In an effort to fill the gap in my routine and exercise needs created by my slowdown in cycling, I’ve found walking and hiking is a great substitute. While my regular, daily walks with Sal help me maintain the basics, I was looking for something that included some socializing while discovering new places in my

It’s okay to follow patterns. Some think you get in a rut if you do the same things in the same pattern regularly. However, sometimes being a “regular “ at certain places is healthy. Lately I’ve become a creature of habit. That is, I’ve started to frequent some of the same establishments on the same
I’ve been on this trail many times. Mostly by bike. On foot with Sal is quite different. We were walking on the The Loop in Tucson and found this bench. It was a custom tile bench dedicated to the memory of someone named Sidney Alan Haynes, an obvious parrothead. It was decorated with a margarita

Partly due to my PTSD-like approach to the two wheelers after multiple falls, the real reason is wanting to remake my life that had

I had to do something. So on went the Hoka hikers. I picked up Sal’s leash and we were off. That was at the end of March. By June I was better but my approach to cycling had changed. No longer was I hell-bent to ride 50 miles on a road bike at 20 mph

Overcoming. That’s what this year has been about. Of memories. And things stuck in my head. Working on getting unstuck. The burning helped tremendously. But there was some residual in there. Staring at and then ascending a climbing wall came close to dislodging the remnants. When you ascend a wall you get to a point
