Spicy ramen sounds perfect when you’ve spent the last three hours bicycling in the rain. However, an hour later when you hit the mountains, it doesn’t seem so smart.

I did this a few years ago, but it feels appropriate today.

We are weather wimps in San Francisco. Anything below 50 degrees is “freezing”.

Happy 100th Birthday to Dick Van Dyke—a national treasure. My earliest cinematic memory is of him in Mary Poppins. I loved the chimney sweep song and dance, “Step in Time”, on the rooftops. #dickvandyke #100years

My Canon G7X has been a great travel camera. It’s pretty beat up and taped together, but still does what it’s supposed to. #GX7 #travelcamera

This painting by Rogier van der Weyden (from google) is one of the most moving paintings I’ve ever seen. I am not religious, but this painting fills me with overwhelming emotion. The sorrow of the subjects in this painting is palpable. I cannot stand in front of this painting with dry eyes.
“Descent from the Cross”, a painting by Rogier van der Weyden that depicts the removal of Jesus from the cross.

If you’re feeling stressed over the news and current events, I recommend you book a flight to another country and rent a bicycle. Ride, eat, drink—repeat.

We just went to a well-stocked liquor store in Montreal. They had wine and spirits from around the world… except the US. American products were removed due to tariffs. How is this good for America?
