Friday March 7, 2025 Guerneville CA.
I rode on up to the state park today.
Kiosk
I thought they’d be further along on building the new kiosk, but, maybe the volunteers only work on some days or they need some more materials as it didn’t look like anymore was done then what they had done a couple days ago.
I wanted to chat with some of the park guys so I rode on up to the shop and shot the bull with the guys there for a bit. We talked about them rocking the road eventually for me. Things have to dry out a bit before that can happen, which is ok, as I’m not ready for them to rock it yet
Cousin’s place
From there I rode up the hill on the old road to my cousin’s place at the top. We were chatting outside, sitting at table with a view when this wild Tom turkey walked by about twenty feet from us, like it owned the place.
Take the day off
I left their place around 3:30 and was thinking of hauling a few loads of rock. But as I approached Skiddy, I decided to just take the day off and rode on by and back to our place.
Rocks
I did stop here to throw these rocks off the road.
I stopped at this overlook for a break. Those are Indian soup plants. The Indians were supposed to use this plant for soap and the bulbs were also edible.
Not much in the sky today. The sun was just going down behind the mountains to the west of me.
After a good break there, I rode on over to our small pond and was going to pick up the card in the game cam there, but I forgot and left without it. The pond is looking real nice.
From the pond, I worked my way home, where I let the chickens into the front yard. My daffodils have peaked, but are still looking pretty good.
Chair hopping
As I was sitting there chair hopping around the yard, I remembered it was my birthday, a good reason to take the day off. I’m only 78 now.
Nice day.
Happy Birthday. Sounds like you have a great life. Do what you want and when you want to.
Hope you have many more great days.
Happy Birthday to you, Bob!
Wishing you many more years of enjoying nice days with bike rides, paddling the river, chair hopping, trail improvements and playing with your equipment repairing roads.
I guess that’s a bit selfish as I enjoy reading about it all. Love & birthday hugs to you.
Happy Birthday Bob,I’m like A Gramma-I also prefer that you don’t catch up to me[3years].your country side looks great,we’re in the far North & have far too much snow this year,All the best.
Happy Birthday Bob! I will say that you haven’t caught up to me – age wise.
Thank you for so many enjoyable posts over the years.
Thanks for the birthday wishes.
Now on catching up to you on age, We don’t want to do that, because the only way to catch up to you is for you to pass on. ;O) So, you just keep living on and I’ll be catching up to you soon enough, bUt I don’t want to catch up too soon. :O)
