I asked them if I could move in (take up permanent residence in one of their display tents.) dwcactuseatershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14442154730680441298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28570556.post-12953618229991701902008-11-19T13:17:00.000-08:002008-11-19T13:17:00.000-08:00I should have mentioned, I picked up the copy of t...I should have mentioned, I picked up the copy of the book I read in the break room at REI in Sacramento, where I work. Not sure if your publisher gave it to us as an employee copy or if another employee left it, but I'll be passing it on and I've recommended it to several people.

In fact, I was so taken with my views of the lovely American River at sunrise that I barely noticed how fast I was running (throwing down eight point fives for the first few miles.) What a beautifully designed trail. To answer your question -- yes, I've spoken with her since then and she's doing very well. We had an enjoyable conversation in May just before the book was shipped -- and by the way, we corresponded before that via email a bunch of times to talk about Cactus memories. As for the bike-versus-runner stuff -- that's what can happen when there is a limited, desirable resource that draws many different user groups. (I saw that on the PCT, too.) thanks again, dwcactuseatershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14442154730680441298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28570556.post-28555971955178564272008-11-19T10:56:00.000-08:002008-11-19T10:56:00.000-08:00As a cyclist and daily user of said bike path, I a...As a cyclist and daily user of said bike path, I apologize for my fellow cyclists' behavior. The penile numbness resulting from 50 mile rides on the 100 gram, carbon fiber torture devices known as bike seats can sometimes lead to baditudes. Glad you enjoyed our little city. I just finished your book a couple days ago and enjoyed it very much. It did leave me curious though, as to whether you've spoken with Allison since?Dr. Loganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16542493767359114575noreply@blogger.com
