At least it seems nothing too terribly awful happened on your trip. And I for one would love to do what you did! All is well and you enjoyed some very great riding and, learning and visiting. Here’s to the next one ;’-).
9 months agoKathleen, I enjoyed reading your journal and looking at your nice sketches. Do you remember when we met in Texas when we toured on the Southern Tier years ago?
9 months agoThanks, Em!
You must be pretty excited about your upcoming trip to see the parents and more. Wishing you an empty seat next to you.
What a great tour this was - friends, family and pretty easy navigation! Other than the train connections and weather at the start, it looks like you had a lot of fun and managed to do it at just the perfect pace for yourself. I absolutely loved all the sketches, you are so talented! And to have a whole row to yourself on the plane home - what a way to top it off! I do the big jump over the Pacific soon and would feel fantastic if just the middle seat is not occupied :-)
9 months agoBah - money!
Guess we’ll have to apply for grants so everyone can get one.
It's just a matter of the price - a thousand or so more. Leider.
9 months agoThanks again, Bill!

9 months agoOh jeez what a great time to have lived out here. If only ….
We moved out here just a few years ago from over the hill. The foundations of the time you lived here, though, are still around - farm, fish, and surf is the name of the game.
Thanks for following along.
Hi Kathleen... I've thoroughly enjoyed following along, even if I gave up cycling years ago. I lived in Half Moon Bay 1972-74, and worked in San Mateo. It was always such a relief to come over the hill at day's end and see that fog bank. I was on Willow Ave., where my duplex butted up against a farmer's artichoke fields. Beach access was free and the surf was audible at night. Now I see that those fields have been replaced by homes, clear out to the beach.
9 months agoBless you, Greg.
9 months agoI am jealous! LOVE hearing those bells ❤️
9 months agoAt least the “train travel” has some sense of style..

Great anecdote about how things can go wrong on a bike tour. As disappointed as you felt about getting dissed by your brother in the morning, missing the train, and missing your brother's surprise as a result, just think how disappointed he must have been.
9 months agoI really enjoyed connecting with you agian via your journal. Thank you.
