May 1 opening day in Robinson Canyon

LT Murray wildlife refuge solo hike with plenty of route finding.

Nearly the end for my anenomes

My first spring with new bulbs. I hope they naturalize. A memory of the Mediterranean specifically Sicily in 2016.

Friday round trip to Columbia City

A bike ride with Alison to fill in for L's furnace repair call. This week is the first of radical adjustment to catastrophic health news for a close friend. I know the ride is hard and I know every one will help in some way, as yet unknown. I hope I have deep wells of resilience because it's needed.

Wednesday in Columbia City 33 miles

Columbia City on sunny Wednesday
