I finally made it on motorcycle (but almost didn’t escape)

Eastern Sierra in the far distance. Back in 2007, M & I hiked all day in the scorching heat trying to reach Papoose Flat, where those little sharp peaks are in the distance (left of center). Had to turn around because the sun was beginning to set. Made it back to the car just in time before our water ran out.

Peak Effort

Flag Hill – Sunol Regional Wilderness
  1. Question every requirement; have the name of the person who made it.
  2. Delete any part or process you can do without. Restore 10% back later if necessary.
  3. Simplify & optimize the remaining parts/processes.
  4. Accelerate the cycle time.
  5. Automate only after doing all the above, and the bugs have been shaken out.

Constellation Orion, partly encircled by Barnard’s Loop, appears upside down (on the left) when seen from the southern hemisphere.

Sirius is the brightest star in the night sky.

On the far right, near the top, are the two Magellanic Clouds, satellite galaxies of the Milky Way.

There’s a sacred place at Almaden Quicksilver Park that few people know about. A hike there is refreshing to the soul, yet could be exhausting to the body.

It’s a fair trade.
