Beautiful Buffalo, New York

My home town. 201 Walton Drive, Amherst, NY. 1977 to 1989. Once a booming industrial economy and 8th largest city in in 1900. Leading up to 1990 the city 's fortune took a turn and retracted to the same population as it did in 1900. Today Buffalo has about 300,000 residents. If you do go there you must go to Niagara Falls.

TREASURE ISLAND MUSIC FESTIVAL

Guess who? that's me standing in the crowd. What a trip. This was published in the San Francisco 7X7 magazine, a great read on local restaurants and events. With the beautiful city scape in the foreground and multiple stages of rocking bands, this is truly killer show.

MIDNIGHT MISSION

OBAMA Gets Caught Lookin

Looks like he's about to do some sort of gyrating dance move?

Lake Chabot Ride

Lake Chabot Regional Park in Castro Valley, California. I think the mountain trail is 15 miles and kicked my ass. We also continued through a night ride and road from Castro Valley towards the Oakland Zoo. The city lights were amazing and we encountered a friendly heard of cows. They are a lot bigger in the dark than the are in daylight from the other side of the fence.

Drakes Bay

Drakes Bay is absolutely awesome. Just follow HWY 101 North and head west towards Stinson Beach. The oyster filled waters and thick layer of fogg make this a kayakers heaven. Keep an eye out for bat rays with 5 foot wing spans.
