I was at the gym, getting in my 30 mile jog and was watching the TV. They had a commercial for gold coins from the Gold Rush of the 1850s. It turns out it was the gold from the Central America, the steamer that went down in the 1800s written about in Ship Of Gold. I just started rereading Ship Of Gold. It was interesting to see the gold for sale on TV. They had a website for the gold at shipofgoldinfo.com (doesn't seem to be currently working.)

Tina and I rode our bikes from Astoria to Crescent City, California during a week long vacation. We met a few people and ended up riding along with Layla and Jeff for a few days. I went overboard and took around 300 pictures on my Canon, so here is just a smattering of them, with a slant towards sunsets at Brookings.

Ron, Trey, Tom and I went up to Mt. St. Helens to ride the Plains of Abraham and Falls Creek. The plains of Abraham are pretty damn cool, once you get past the hour of BS uphill.

I went for my first outside climb with Dan, Mike and a buddy of theirs at Broughton Bluffs in the Gorge. I apparently cried like a little girl when I finished my climb.
