Downhill Skiing, Bicycle Riding & Walking
My two favorite activities that I love to do is ride my bicycle in the warmer months and downhill skiing in the freezing ones. All of my life, I loved riding my bike because I could travel across the island where I grew up near Detroit and, later, in northern Michigan along Lake Michigan. RidingContinue reading “Downhill Skiing, Bicycle Riding & Walking”
The Absence of the Wild
Currently living in the metroplex in north Texas where Dallas is on one side of the airport and Fort Worth is on the other with suburbia in between.

The Serenity of Water

Taking Advantage of Others
Yesterday, I felt like my tire was getting low although not flat plus it seemed like the front end of the vehicle was shaking. My ultra reliable Toyota Corolla was letting me down. So, I drove down to a local franchise tire loss that isn’t a national brand for help. They “fixed” my tire thatContinue reading “Taking Advantage of Others”
