Well, it’s had a few bumps so far, to be honest.

How cool that you got to see Brandi Carlisle at Mississippi Studios!

Tern shit in hair and the removal of it, though? Not cool! Especially when combined with and unexpected shoe-soaking.

But definitely a story worth sharing. And one you'll certainly remember for a long while.

These salt ponds are still in commercial production I think.

Foster City. They're not worried about sea level rise, nosirree.

Old commercial salt ponds now being restored in most of the South Bay. Facebook's HQ property starts just on the right of the frame.

Hope you're feeling better by the time you see this comment.

Colds are miserable!

Great shot! It really does look like someone put a black star sticker between its eyes.

Hi Scott,
Patrick and Susanna here. We feel honored that you mentioned us in your blog:) Yes. We remember this bridge and also thought it to be a little frightening. I remember us riding on the pedestrian part with shoes unclipped from the pedals; and pushing with one foot off the ground like a scooter to move my bike forward. Really enjoying following along on another one of your fall tours.

No wonder pineapples are called pineapples.

I call it, "The one that got away."

We were thinking of you when we were biking through here, and especially when we came to the ferry at A Guarda. After your experience I’d meant to check to make sure it was running, but never got around to it.

That oak could be way older than any of us would guess.

I call this dish "Fish in Hiding".

Hi Scott.
Looking at your pics of Cambados reminds Sus and I of our visit there only a couple of months ago. Looks like you are following a similar itinerary to us from our trip this year. As always, your journals are entertaining and informative, with stunning images. Your journals have become Susanna and I's bedtime reading. Tail Winds!

Yup, that was a memorable "intimate moment"! I suspect your memories will each be slightly different...
