Another weekend on the road. This trip took me to California for the second time in three weeks. Earlier in February, I spent several wonderful days in San Francisco. This trip took me to the other side of the Bay: Berkley, the site of many protests in the 60's and Haight-Ashbury. While I was "thinking critically" about Critical Thinking I was also enjoying some wonderful "spring" weather. This conference kept me busy most of the day, but I was able to "steal" some precious moments in the evening to run through Chavez park, catch a sunset or visit the Botanical Gardens at the University of California. What a rare opportunity to see the west side of the San Francisco Bay one weekend only to see the east portion of the Bay two weeks later. This trip gave me a glimpse of things to come in the Midwest: flowering trees, tulips, warm breezes, and wonderful sunsets. Our conference ended on Sunday afternoon, leaving me time to visit the UC Botanical Gardens including the Redwood Park, buy tie-dyed tie shirts for my dogs, and walk through the college town of Berkley.
Join me in reflecting and reminiscing about cycling (motorcycle and bicycle), traveling, bird watching, sports and all other adventures in this ordinary life.
