March 5, 2020 - Disneyland

Fought our way through traffic for 2 hours to get back to Disneyland.  Have I mentioned I hate LA traffic?  We were able to get a boarding pass to the new Star Wars ride, which is a little different than fast pass.  We estimated our boarding group would get called later in the afternoon.  We checked periodically but spent lots of time in other parts of the park.  We really didn't do much but we did enough.  Gina wasn't feeling well so we did the basics and then headed out.

  1-10-2021 Corona Cases       21,217,244 Corona Deaths    354,491        1-16-2021 Corona Cases       22,445,517 Corona Deaths    374,825   Interesting things we did this week Sunday I did the Disney Marathon Weekend 10k, and I admit, I kind like doing the Half first and the 10K second.  I averaged at 21:14 minute mile, which wasn’t as good as yesterday, but I was still a little tired and the difference was minimal. Sunday afternoon, Bree and I went to a park in Lakeland.  I haven’t been on a hiking walk for a while, I’ve been very focused on getting in miles and making good times.  We went to the Circle B Bar Reserve.  This is a fantastic park.  People were out in droves.  Walkers, bikers and photographers.  There were some pretty impressive camera set ups there.  I got a bunch of shots: bald eagles, osprey, red sho...

Sept 27 Coronavirus US CASES 6,980,115 Coronavirus DEATHS 192,761     Oct 3      Coronavirus US CASES 7,234,219 Coronavirus DEATHS 197,206     Gil’s Birthday Celebration continued through Sunday.  We started out doing a liter clean up at Sawgrass, I’d signed up a month previous and I decided it might be a fun additional to the rest of the activities.  The liter cleanup was joined by Lisa and Chris and Carla.  It didn’t go as smoothly as I’d hoped.  I had received a message from the park ranger that the canal at the front of the park was a high liter area.  They had something called a water goat in the canal and it prevents the liter from floating down stream.  It was a good collection of trash but unfortunately much of it was out of reach.  We had liter pickers and a net and this was helpful, but it still left a lot of liter.  We talked about getting a boat but launching i...

Route 66 - Day 3 - Oct 11, 2019

Woke up after a great nights sleep in the Lincoln Walmart parking lot.  I love Walmarts that cater to those boondocking and I always try to spend my dollars t here when I can.  Hit the road early and started marking things off my list.  The Route 66 Ultimate Guide is a pretty good guide.  Its not perfect, I've missed some things I wanted to see because I assumed they would be included, but unfortunately they are not.  I'm trying to be more conscience now and double checking things.  I started in Lincoln and ended the day close to the Illinois/Missouri border.  I didn't want to cross as I wanted to hike the old Chain of Rocks bridge in the daylight.  The walmarts in the area didn't offer overnight parking, so I backtracked for a few miles and spent the night at a rest area on I-44. Highlights: Springfield, IL - This town really embraces their connection to Lincoln and its obvious around every turn.  Lincoln statues, Lincoln Scultptures, Li...
