Patches







Here are some of the patches I earned on bicycle rides many years ago. Most of them were with the AYH (American Youth Hostel) Arizona Bicycle Club. One of them is for the Hekaton Classic 25 mile ride in California in 1982. I think it was around Livermore.



The one I am proudest of is the National Century - League of American Wheelman - 100 miles from Tempe, AZ to Casa Grand, AZ and back. I bought my bicycle in March 1978 and did that ride in September of the same year.



Also, there is a patch for Angels Landing in Zion National Park. I did that hike in 1981.



Oh...so many memories.

Tutti Fruiti


This outfit is almost finished. I still need to put the waistband on the bloomers. I have more tutti fruiti / seersucker fabric in other colors and patterns.

Licorice

I love licorice, especially the soft Aussie style. Today we had samples of different flavors at Costco. I have a new favorite flavor now - Lucky Country Aussie Style soft gourmet Marionberry. It is yummy. This company has green apple, strawberry, pineapple, and black cherry, also. Oh...and black.

Pacific Ocean


I took these pictures when I was in California last month. Tammy and Lindy and I went to see the Pacific Ocean. This was near Marshall, CA.
