8220;The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.” St. Augustine. Thursday, June 25, 2015. Boy what a sea level land lubber am I. Thought I might die today breathing at 6400 feet peddling uphill. We came to Colorado this year with the wish to return leaner and with better cardio. To wit, we rigged up a way to transport Carl's 3 wheel recumbent and headed northwest . Hillbilly comes to mind. Then we set out on the rio grande trail in the direction of aspen. Our first ride was 20 ...

Turning my pages: Roswell and a solar storm

8220;The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.” St. Augustine. Thursday, September 11, 2014. Roswell and a solar storm. After two years off the road Carl is finally mobile enough to attempt an rv trip. Since I had two surgeries myself this summer it is a return to activity for me as well. We are both giddy like kids with new drivers licenses. No one could mistake us for geezers. There are aliens everywhere! Labels: On the road again. Isnt Roswell an interesting place? Leaf me her...

8220;The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.” St. Augustine. Wednesday, September 24, 2014. Fun for a cause. This is our second year to attend the MS 150 Texas Tour of Champions, thanks to loyal and generous donors. it is a fun filled weekend for top fundraisers to celebrate the cause for which we raise all this money. Hiking, biking and lots of parties. Who needs more? And attitudes that say FUN! Maybe orange is the new black? I hurt all over after three days of activity, but ...

8220;The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.” St. Augustine. Tuesday, October 23, 2012. My walking buddy says she met a man who called himself a Possibilitarian. When it comes to the divine, no one can prove or disprove anything, so anything is possible, he said. I like the thought of that, believing in the possibilities. A Buddhist would say this is my karma ripening from the spiritual work of a previous life. Who really knows? After all, anything is possible. 8220;I thought y...

8220;The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.” St. Augustine. Monday, August 1, 2011. What a contrast, between brown blistery Texas, suffering its worst drought since 1925, and the verdant green landscape of the Great Lakes states, with their rolling farms and little lakes everywhere. There's no doubt I had better scenery this summer than my friends in Texas. But soon I'll be joining in the prayers for rain and begging for a hurricane too. It will be good to be home. July 19 Mor...

8220;The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.” St. Augustine. Friday, June 29, 2012. How I burned my nose. Ever since I got an iphone, I am on the grid all the time. This summer the iphone just got better. I downloaded an altimeter ap and now I know just how high we are driving, biking, or hiking. I don't even even need GPS or cell service to know why I am huffing and puffing. This ap works in ASTER m ode (Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection). The other day I was...

8220;The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.” St. Augustine. Wednesday, June 29, 2011. Lake with a river running through it. Here's some folks crossing the Mississippi about a quarter mile from the source. Amazing to think it goes from this little stream to a mile wide at Cairo. The search for the headwaters of the Mississippi was all consuming to some folks who got towns and counties and trails named after them in these parts. Why all the bother about the headwaters? The bikin...

8220;The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.” St. Augustine. Tuesday, July 26, 2011. Discovering Columbus, Indiana. In every state there are certain town names you can count on finding: Lincoln, Salem, Paris, London, Columbus. But not every Columbus has the claim to fame that Columbus Indiana has. World renowned architecture, green spaces, public art. I M Pei designed the library, Don Hisaka the jail, Kevin Roche the Cummins headquarters, Isaac Hodgson the Courthouse. W...A wee...
