Pipeline Revisted
June 15th, 2009 — Mountain Biking, Vancouver
I took my digital camera to capture some video of my first North Shore ride of the season: a revisiting of Pipeline on Mt. Fromme, the first North Shore trail I ever rode (back in 2001). However I soon became focused on the trail and how it seemed to be thinking about doing me bodily harm. So you’ll have to settle for a single photo:
Seattle and Los Angeles Again
June 9th, 2009 — Family, Travel
Flights are cheap.
I saw a $59 flight from Seattle to LAX, and I couldn’t resist a quick Vancouver –> Seattle –> LA –> Vancouver trip.
I took a bus from Vancouver to Seattle ($39), stayed with a friend, flew from Seattle to LAX for a few days of visiting with family, and then flew straight back to Vancouver. I got lucky with the air travel: 17 minutes from getting dropped off at SeaTac to buckling in on an earlier flight and just five hours door-to-door on the return trip.
