Education Ride 365: Twenty-Three Reasons Why I Have Not Posted On This Blog For Many Days



A couple of regular readers of this blog have written to make sure I had not met my demise.  After all, I never go this long without posting and---> I am riding what some refer to as a "donorcycle."  Alas, here I sit in Bellingham, Washington preparing to board a ferry en route to Haines, Alaska.  The 'Cycle of Education' is loaded on the ship and in a couple of hours we set sail for a three day journey to the area around Juneau.  From there I will ride up through the Yukon Territory and on to Anchorage, a roughly 800 mile ride.  After a couple of weeks riding around Alaska I'll be on my way back via another three day voyage.

A couple of weeks ago my daughter Skye flew into San Francisco International Airport to join me on a ride up the Pacific coastline.  We had a wonderful time!  From San Francisco up through Seattle, the sights were spectacular and her companionship was even better.  She is such a trooper on the motorcycle.  The winding coastal roads, elevation changes, huge Redwood trees, and the many other natural and man-made attractions kept us both eager for more.  She flew home last night.  A sad night for me.

Now I am prepared to resume my blog publishing and education discussing activities!  Having said this, I may be without wifi (internet) service for the three day passage I'm about to embark on.  Following that, however, normal blog posting resumes...unless I fall prey to a bear or such while riding the 'Cycle of Education' in Alaska!

Below find twenty-three reasons why I have not posted on this blog for many days--->















































Basically one compelling reason---> I LOVE YOU SKYE!

Dan, Skye is so beautiful -- and growing up so fast -- she's so big now! I think these photographs more than justify why you haven't blogged in a while. Thanks for sharing these photos, and good luck on this leg of your journey!

Skye looks like she had a great time, and may have a huge future in modeling. She is very photogenic. Good luck in Alaska. Don't feed the bears!

In the 5th piture from the end Skye looks like: Whatever it is that you are selling, she is not buying. Haha too cute.
