Light Rail




It was a very exciting day for Ava. She knows that I use to take the light rail to school and has been infatuated with it for a while. Ava and I headed down to the Children's Discovery Museum for a fun-filled day of discovery stuff and our mode of transportation was light rail. Good for the environment and good for the kid. She actually wanted to pose in front of this sign and get a picture. As she said "cheese" I took the shot.

Pfeiffer and Big Sur



Spent the better part of the day with dad. Pfeiffer Beach reminded me of that movie The Beach. It's well hidden and you have to take an unmarked road to get here. A very beautiful place.

Best for Shawn and Family




Just received an email from my uncle Mike. This is my cousin Shawn Michael Wilson who is currently serving in Kalsu, Iraq. Haven't seen him since we were both kids but a few prayers or kind wishes for him, his family, and his safe return would be awesome. I'm really looking forward to being able to meet him (again) and his family sometime in the near future.

Annual Noob Day




This was awesome. Saturday morning I cruised out for a Cycle Gear sponsored ride through the mountains put together for those of us with little mileage under our belts. As I merged onto the freeway up towards the 92, I merged into about 300 motorcycles on their way to this event. It was like a quarter mile motorcycle snake cruising up the freeway. Neat stuff. It's also really cool that these things are available. Motorcyclin is dangerous and I'll take advantage of all the help I can get! Needless to say at this point, this ride was a little slow for moi. :)

Here Comes Baby Maya


Today I had the honor of doing some maternity photography for Danny and Jenna. It felt good to take some time to do some photos! They're expecting their new baby daughter, Maya, within the next few weeks. Congratulations to them and if you want to see the photos, I posted them HERE.

Good Day!



Sue received an accepted offer for a client today and I finished a school paper and hung out with Ava.  I was ready to watch some Thursday night television when I got another idea.  Just got back. Have a great weekend.

Mt. Hamilton






Not only is a motorcycle fun to ride, it's really inspired me to get out and explore the world around me.  Unlike driving, you really do take in every mile.

Trike-A-Thon




The pressure was intense.  The laps were brutal.  The Barbie Bike held up well.

Not Solo Twisties


The guy I met on my last post took me out today and helped me out a bit in the skills department.  Big thanks to him, and great burgers at Alice's!

Solo Twisties




Rain, rain, go away.  Today it did.  With that, I headed to the hills to do some "real" riding.  Well, that's what it's called here but I kept the speed real low to test the limits of my abilities without ending up at the bottom of some narrow valley.  So low was my speed that a friendly biker passed me, turned around, passed me on the other side offering a thumbs up, turned around again and caught up to me.  We pulled over.  He wanted to be sure I was OK because I wasn't approaching the speed of light like most everyone else on these roads.  I explained that this was my very first time, I valued my life, we talked shop for a bit, and then exchanged some contact information.  Nice guy.  Anyway, it was fun.
