Davis to Winters and back
Fourteen of us met in Davis at Lake Blvd and Russell Blvd on Saturday morning.
We rode about 13 miles to Winters. Great bike parking in front of Steady Eddy’s.
We took a one-hour rest stop for lunch and to visit the Winters Harvest Festival.
This is a popular ride organized and led by Leo – everybody loves the rides Leo leads. I got to ride sweep – my favorite place on a group ride.
On the way back with just 4.5 miles to go, one of our riders had a flat tire. Sheila and I stayed with the rider while Leo rode back to his parked vehicle, then drove to pick up the stranded rider and her bike.
Great ride with old and new friends. 26 miles.
Project Ride Smart
at Westlake Charter. Prepping the students for their first street ride. Gina, Deanna, Kathy, and a parent volunteer:
Kathy and I worked with the Yellow group, three different classes. Great cyclists who know how to safely ride on the street.
Volleyball
Last home game of the season.
CB won. On to the playoffs.
Thursday at Merrilyn’s
Tuesday was baking day: pretzels.
Wednesday: Thursday @ Merrilyn’s. Pretzels with beer cheese dipping sauce and grilled brats, artichoke dip with crackers .. and wine.
Flag football and a birthday party
Carson at Christian Brothers scoring a touchdown.
Carson thought I would enjoy reading the book his 3rd grade class just finished. Excellent recommendation.
Sunday evening, we got together to celebrate Avery’s 13th birthday.
Leo is a freshman at Jesuit, Lauren is a freshman at University of Nevada Reno, Brooklyn is in 2nd grade at St Francis of Assisi.
Off to Vegas
Not me, I’m just the chauffeur. Maria with Peggy and Virginia off to Las Vegas to play a lot of golf.
The Pops Chorale
BarbaraL and I met Becky and Charlie, their daughter and son-in-law, and Becky’s sister and husband for dinner at Cafe Bernardo. Beautiful evening, open windows, light breeze.
We walked to the other end of the block for the 7pm show of The Pops Chorale and Orchestra at the Sofia/B St Theater.
Thanks Becky for inviting me to attend. Great performance.
Happy birthday
One of our bike buddies – Paul – had a 70th birthday party. Paul, Edith (Brenda’s mother), Brenda, Laurie, Martine, Lori, Jim:
Paul, with wife Emmy, gave a short thank-you speech before the cake was cut. Emmy made the most delicious spread of food, including a couple of my favorites: lumpia and pancit.
