CURRENT MISSION

Bikes are a nifty way to see the world. I'm currently on a bike tour from Seattle to San Diego and its been bliss. Every day seems to be better than the last

ABOUT ME

I love to laugh, but I'd rather make someone else laugh first.
I love to dance, but what good is it without music?
I love to eat, but I'd rather talk while we cook.
I love to make art, but I'd rather support someone who is good at it
I love to ride my bike, but I'd rather stop and take a picture

PHILOSOPHY

tough question... something about how greed and selfishness make me weep, and how the love I've seen between people all over the world keeps me happy?
Yea... something like that, except it would sound better if a Zen master wrote it

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seen? A 60 foot Pine tree blasted to pieces by lightning. I was ~60 yards away. The power of the earth is amazing, and scarily beautiful.
Done? Riding my bike down the west coast of the USA is kinda cool I guess, but "amazing?" ... Hmmm, tell you what, next time someone says 'wow, that's amazing' to me, I'll post it here.

Teach, Learn, Share

Yea, those three sound nice.
