I saw tons of goldenrod, the former state flower of Alabama, during my morning bicycle ride near Hartselle.

Bike Ride on a Warm Winter Day
I couldn’t resist taking a neighborhood ride in these temps.
Ginger’s Solstice Celebration
I had a great time at Ginger’s solstice celebration. I just love sitting around a fire talking with friends.
“Moreover to light a fire is the instinctive and resistant act of man when, at the winter ingress, the curfew is sounded throughout Nature. It indicates a spontaneous, Promethean rebelliousness against the fiat that this recurrent season shall bring foul times, cold darkness, misery and death.” –Thomas Hardy
Across the Country on a Bike
I finally scanned the pictures from my 1995 PAC tour ride. Over 60 of us rode over 2800 miles from San Diego to Charleston in 23 days – an average of 123 miles a day. My family, Doreen, and some friends at work came to see me and wish me well when we stopped in Florence Alabama.
The pictures are posted to my smugmug site and can be seen here.
