Day 149-January 27, 2013

     Morning adventure, a motorcycle excursion looking at property for the kids.  I headed out Long Valley Road so I could see the venue for Scott and Savannah's wedding.  We continued on the route for Rex Reservoir taking the off road journey under Highway 20 to our house.  I love new roads.
     Afternoon adventure, a bicycle ride starting at Champion Mine.  A little almost six year old fella was riding his new mountain bike with his dad and he fell into the NID ditch.  He was soaking wet.  I first passed the two on an uphill.  Later while waiting for Fred, they caught up to me.  I could see the brave little guy was awfully cold.  I offered to stay with Garrison while his dad hurried ahead to fetch their truck.  I tried to give him my warm gloves, I encouraged him to move about to warm up a little.  He was hesitant to make eye contact.  I'm sure all that was in him was trying not to cry.  A brave little fellow, that one.  His dad did his level best.  He'll have a good story to tell forever.  On our return from Nevada City, Eddie led us on a rocky trail leading from Old Downieville Highway to the crest on Newtown near Prince Rainier.  I love new trails.
     I telephoned my best friends, Lori, Kathleen, and Sharon.  I made us Beth and Dustin's stuffed peppers.  I kept seeking inspiration for the bathroom project.  I didn't pack enough for my Santa Rosa journey.
