A Nice Long Weekend with Lady Friends

Recently I spent a nice long weekend with some of my lady friends.  It was especially wonderful because I hadn't seen any of these friends for a very long time.  We were all coming together for some special occasion dress shopping.  I stayed with my friend LB and her fiancé, in the cutest little house… Continue reading A Nice Long Weekend with Lady Friends

Laguna Seca -Day 8

Awoke to the last day of the trip. This morning started as most had, with a run.  With no set direction in mind we set off, turning here and there as we came to an intersection, enticed by interesting looking historic homes. For fear of another graceless fall, I hadn't brought my camera phone.  The… Continue reading Laguna Seca -Day 8

Laguna Seca – Day 7

This morning, during the morning run, I did a gravity check again.  As before it was because I was distracted and not watching where I was going.  I was trying to look down a side road to see the front of an interesting looking building. As I gave a running step off the curb, my left… Continue reading Laguna Seca – Day 7

Laguna Seca – Day 6

Arriving in Moss Landing, to have breakfast at The Lighthouse, we were disappointed to find that it was closed.  Apparently they are always closed on Mondays. We had passed a little café on our way to The Lighthouse.  We had never eaten there and it was open. We headed back to the Moss Landing Café.… Continue reading Laguna Seca – Day 6

Laguna Seca – Day #5

Sunday. No run this morning. The plan was to get to the track early to beat the crowds, sign up for the Yamaha Niken demo ride and have breakfast on Ducati Island. On the ride in, we noticed that there was no crowds.  huh. In anticipation of demo ride we had peaked the bikes and… Continue reading Laguna Seca – Day #5

Laguna Seca – Day 4

We got up and went running again this morning. I was limping at the beginning of the run until my muscles warmed up. It was much better by the end of our run but, not surprisingly, today's run was my slowest yet. We both came back very damp from the cold foggy/misty air. Even my glasses… Continue reading Laguna Seca – Day 4

Laguna Seca – Day 3

The next morning started out with our run. The cross walks seemed to be sending mixed messages: DW pointed out that the ivy leaves were very large.After the run, we walked to Dierk's Parkside Café, the real reason that we chose Santa Rosa as a destination. Interesting things we saw on the walk back to… Continue reading Laguna Seca – Day 3

Laguna Seca – Day 2

Our plan all along was to get up early and go running each morning. Both of us brought running gear and shoes. This morning was our first run. DW planned the runs to be about three miles, because that is mostly what I am used to. It was fun to see all the bears again.… Continue reading Laguna Seca – Day 2

Laguna Seca – Day 1

The original plan, as I understood it, was to leave Tuesday evening after work. I planned for this by taking Wednesday off from my work (Wednesday to Wednesday). As it turned out, we were really leaving on Wednesday after work. This extra day to get ready for the trip worked out to my benefit. Who… Continue reading Laguna Seca – Day 1

2019 Disney – Day 4

This was our final day at the park.  I can only speak for myself, but other adults in our party said things that led me to believe that they felt the same way, my feet and knees were complaining first thing in the morning. There wasn't a day that we spent in the park that… Continue reading 2019 Disney – Day 4
