The Big Yellow House
Back to the windy and wet weather today. Just as the sun set, we got a bit of a break and I took the oportunity to take some shots of our neighbors’ big Victorian set against the vibrant clouds. If … Continue reading →

Barn and blue sky
We’ve had a lot of rain lately and it doesn’t seem like I’ve seen much of the sun for weeks. So it surprised me when I came across this picture I took last weekend. I went for a short and … Continue reading →
Ridin’ with Dale
Sometime last month Lori and I went to the Ingomar Club for a new member welcome and since I also had to pick up my Triumph from the dealer, I went to the club on the Triumph. That was a … Continue reading →
Amazing men & their flying machines
Another shot from yesterday’s motocross action. This one gives you a better idea of how large the jump really is. The rider looked like he was about 17 years old and he was pretty talented. I’m filling out more paperwork … Continue reading →
Riding off into the sunset
This morning we awoke to light rain and heavy fog and it looked like it was going to be an indoor day. Galen complained all morning about not being able to go outside. I spent the morning cleaning the garage … Continue reading →
Highway 36
We’ve been having excellent weather the last few days, probably the best string of warm weather since we’ve moved here. Got out the shorts and t-shirts, played in the garden, and went for a lot of motorcycle rides. Greg, a … Continue reading →
Tacky Tourist Stuff
The final day of our motorcycle trilogy was spent riding the Bear River Ridge loop. This is a shorter ride, only about 40 miles total. We then followed that up by taking the KLX and the ATV down to the … Continue reading →
Low Flying Aircraft
Today’s ride took Blake and I on Hwy 36 to Red Bluff, Platina Rd to Redding, and then 299 back to Eureka. Just over 400 miles of riding to end up back where we started. Hwy 36 is probably the … Continue reading →
Blake and his ST
Blake, one of the guys I went to Colorado with, came up for the labor day weekend. Today we rode Avenue of the Giants, and then did the Lost Coast loop. About 140 miles to end up back where we … Continue reading →
John on the KLX
John and Carol came up to visit this weekend making it two weekends in a row that I saw them. Saturday John and I took the bikes into Bear River valley for a morning ride, and then they went to … Continue reading →
A hard day at the office
I had a meeting with a new client today in Whitethorn, which is near Shelter Cove, and about 2 hours away from Ferndale. Since I hadn’t been down in that area yet, I decided to make a whole day of … Continue reading →
Point of Interest
This is Paul Masters, who has the same bike and leathers as I do. He is one of the riders from the Bay Area that I joined up with for the ride out to Colorado. Fortunately our helmets are different … Continue reading →
Line ’em up
This is a group shot of most of the bikes that attended the rally. Mine just happens to be in the foreground, which means it was the most vunerable if anybody tipped one over. The line up was done in … Continue reading →
Wildflowers on Platina Road
One of the promises that I made myself before moving to Ferndale, was that if I got too sick of the fog, I would take the day off and go for a motorcycle ride. Today was that day. Even though … Continue reading →
Playing on the beach
Since the KLX is in the shop getting the kick starter repaired, Lori and I took the ATV down to Centerville beach and took turns on it. While Matt had fun driving like a mad-man, Lori is looking forward to … Continue reading →
Horse and Pond
Well the sun came out today for the first time in over a week, and not a cloud was seen. This called for a motorcycle ride at lunch time that somehow stretched into mid afternoon. I’m determined to see what … Continue reading →
Still some snow left
This is from yesterday’s ride doing the Lost Coast Loop. At the top of Monument there was still a bit of snow left from last week’s storm.
