Monterey Bike Night

After coming back from a work trip to Paris, I found myself in the middle of Monterey Bike Night.

So many wonderful classic metric muscle bikes.

Dat Japanese six cylinder.

A Kawasaki 4 banger.

Another six cylinder Honda!  These are pretty rare bikes.  To see two on one block is pretty amazing.

There probably were over 1000 bikes parked all up and down Cannery Row.

A really cool old Honda.  Not too many like these around anymore.

Visiting Dinkey Creek and Camp El-O-Win in the Spring

We went up to Dinkey Creek, Forked Meadow, and Camp El-O-Win to visit my parents and see the springtime sights.

These snow plants are really going to town!

Old grinding stations from when Native Americans used to come up Dinkey Creek in the summer.

Dinkey Creek sure is beautiful!

Out at the most distant A-frame cabin at Camp El-O-Win.

Near the water tank.

Lots of work has gone into the camp in recent years since it was taken over by the non-profit.

These old adirondack shelters aren’t used anymore.  I suspect they weren’t very suitable for here.

Some graffiti in one of the adirondack shelters.

There must have been lots of bugs at one point.

 

 

Walking across the plank path in Forked Meadow.

Beautiful greenery.
