This is our Christmas tree from last year. My wife, Jacqueline, made it Swiss Family Robinson-style from little pieces of ocean driftwood tied together with blades of grass. The gifts are packs of gum, little packages of cookies, and other things wed bought for each other on the sly at street markets and the little, family-owned pulperias. How would we make it special for the kids? But first we had to get there.
Living life with a big green cargo bike. Thursday, September 1, 2016. Will Specialized Fast Trak 29 x 2. 0 tires fit a Surly Cross Check? The tires look meaty and tough on the bike, but neither wheel will roll without buzzing contact with the frame and fork. After his recent visit, Nick. Fast Trak 29 x 2. Mavic MA3, 20 mm wide, on both front and rear. Plenty of top clearance, not enough side clearance in the fork. No better luck in the rear.

Cruising south along the east side of Spruce Lake we joined up with Gun Meadows Trail and enjoyed some high speed more or less buff alpine meadow riding. We merged onto Gun Creek Trail and kept dropping through forests and meadows on some amazingly fun curvy singeltrack.
We had somewhere on the order of a week to kill before our next trip. After a somewhat stressful afternoon coming off of the Hot Sisters route with the car misbehaving and there being no cheap open rooms available in Bend, we finally pointed to the National Forest land south of town, found a pull out, set our tent up, and collapsed. Head towards Idaho and dork around there for a few days? Go to a town with a cheap motel and work for a week? Winni.
