A colorful character in downtown Campbell, we’ve seen him previously on July 10. Notice he’s got a dandelion in his hat, mismatched shoes, and no tires on the rims of his bicycle. Here he’s regaling my friend with entertaining tales of his encounters with police.
BTW, the scratch visible on the inside of his left leg is one of many on his skin that looks to be getting infected. Hope his immune system is as strong as his personality.

This map shows the bicycle ride we had planned to take last year.
My biking buddy and I were stretching the concept of aging. We were trusting our instincts to keep us out of cars’ way, and pushing forward in terms of distance, testing our survival chances one way and another.
To a biker the sensation is real and pure and akin to something spiritual: you seek, and on the road you find.”

Jojo was a man who thought he was a loner
But he knew it couldn’t last.
Jojo left his home in Tucson, Arizona
For some California grass.
Get back, get back,
Get back to where you once belonged.
Get back, get back,
Get back to where you once belonged.
Get back, Jojo.

There is an art, or rather a knack, to flying.
The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.
Most people fail to miss the ground, and if they are really trying properly, the likelihood is that they will fail to miss it fairly hard.
Clearly, it’s the second point, the missing, which presents the difficulties.
One problem is that you have to miss the ground accidentally. It’s no good deliberately intending to miss the ground because you won’t. You have to have your attention suddenly distracted by something else when you’re halfway there, so that you are no longer thinking about falling, or about the ground, or about how much it’s going to hurt if you fail to miss it.
