My hula sisters:
A fun two hours. Lisa is a great teacher who also shares so much about Hawaiian culture. Our homework, learn to count to 10 in Hawaiian.

Finished!
More needlework therapy as I worked on the final report for Love to Ride.
Today I finished BOTH! Report submitted to Chelsea (in London btw) and t-shirt about to be worn.
“ride” was the solution because the wavy lines were not going to match up.
Summer activities w postscript
Summer is the time for sports camps and a new interest for Avery. He is taking piano lessons.
This was also the day my 7-year-old grandson boosted my ego. At noon, I picked up Carson and Zane from basketball camp at Jesuit. As we walked to the car, I heard Carson say, “My grandma rode like 40 miles .. (no response from Zane) .. Grandma, are you like the best bicycle rider in California?” … pause while I think of something clever to say …
“In my age group, yes.” No response from anyone. LOL!!
Freeport Bar and Grill
A long ride today with a lunch stop in the middle.
After 18 miles, Freeport Bar and Grill. Aris, me, Brenda, Lori, BarbaraB:
After lunch, we crossed the bridge and rode S River Rd to W Sacramento, across the Tower Bridge then the Jibboom Bridge
through Discovery Park.
About 40 miles altogether and a bit warm by the time we got back. And thank you Brenda for your picture-taking while riding.

Hula
A new class was offered at Four Seasons Westshore on Saturday morning: hula.
Lisa, a resident, taught hula for 30 years. Her daughter and niece came to help teach the first class.
Breaking the spell
Since late January I’ve been working for Love to Ride to promote May is Bike Month. This was a job that required new skills on my part. Trying to do a reasonably competent job took root in my brain and occupied my thoughts, even when I wasn’t actually working. Or thinking I should be working. There has been no sewing. But today, I made some progress and it felt good. I fixed a zipper on a jacket and took in the side seams on some shirts for friends in Lake Wildwood.
Only the final report for Love to Ride remains. Almost to the real finish line.
All Stars on Sunday
A final successful day.
Last day of Little League. Last chance for a hot dog from the snack shack.
Ride with Jibe
Sunday morning. Lennore and I rode to the Jibe office for a ride called Eastside Loop.
Laurie was the ride leader, Ki was the mechanic, Lori rode sweep. 22 riders!
A bathroom stop in Discovery Park.
We rode the American River Bike Trail to Northgate where we crossed over to E Levee Rd which is now a bike trail from Northgate to Sotnip Rd then becomes a barely-traveled road. It parallels Steelhead Creek. This picture, taken by Lori/sweep, is close to our left turn onto Sorento Rd.
Baseball on Saturday
When Carson came to bat, you could hear shouts of “triple threat” in the crowd because a triple is what he almost always hits lately.
