Ottawa
By admin | October 13, 2011
After the training, I took a train trip to visit Betsy, a Wandering Wheels cyclist I had met in the spring. We toured around Ottawa, Canada’s capital, on rental Bixi bikes. Like D.C., it’s full of embassies and government buildings (like Parliament) and strange public art. We had great conversations, like about how yoga and […]
July 10 to 20, 2011 A few days later, I flew to Montreal for the Acro Yoga Montreal level two teacher training. Wow. I was joined by Mara, my teacher and dear friend from San Diego. There were also more friends from San Diego, Tucson, Pheonix, Seattle and Chicago, and of course amazing new friends […]

June 30 to July 5, 2011 My mom decided she had to take a trip out to Wyoming to visit my cousins and their kids, even if she could only stay a few days, and even if she had just adopted a dog from the pound two days ago. So with Betsy Ross curled up […]

The Chicago skyline reflected in the bean. The day after I rode 55 miles back from Normal, Katie drove me up north towards Chicago, where she handed me off at a rest area to our mom, driving down from Kenosha, who drove me into the city and dropped me off at the home of Michele […]
Wed, Oct 12, 2011 Well, where have I been since I left off? My dad handed me off to my sister, who took me to her home in St. Joseph, Illinois. That would have been mid-May. It’s a tiny small town just outside of Champaign-Urbana, where Katie and her husband Jared work at the University […]
The pictures in that last post did not appear sideways when I put them in the post.

Yvonne’s son Mike and his wife Veronica live in Jacksonville with their awesome kids, Myka, Megan and Luka. Luka was wearing a ninja outfit to greet us. “You can call me a Chinese bad guy,” he said. Monday I […]

Sunday, May 15, 2011 Perry, KY to Jacksonville, IL There is nothing like being in the car for two days straight to make you want to get up and do your yoga practice. My new wheels.
May 10 to May 12, 2011 Well, Tuesday, I slept most of the day. If you’d rode your bicycle most of the way from San Diego to St. Pete’s, you’d be tired, too! My dad helped me patch my three flat inner tubes, and now I feel like I’m pretty good at that, too. He […]
Monday, May 9, 2011 Inglis to St. Petersburg, FL About 90 miles, driving 5 miles tooling around the neighborhood At 10:00, Connie and I put my gear in her car. She was heading to Spring Hill, about 40 miles south. With the bump from driving, I could be in St. Petersburg tonight! We noticed that […]
