Yesterday we traveled from Paula’s sister Barbara’s home to the Elks Lodge here in Fremont.
We had a lovely stay out in front of Barbara’s home. By staying in our trailer, the rest of the family could inhabit the guest rooms. We all had a fabulous time celebrating Barbara, Sally, Chris, and Grace’s birthdays. Barbara treated us all to a wonderful dinner at the Sea Chest restaurant in Cambria, and we all enjoyed seeing how the youngest, Grace, has grown since we saw her at Christmas.
We have traveled to Fremont to see various friends, and to help our friend Diane celebrate her retirement after approximately 35 years in public education. Staying here at the Elks Lodge is a great choice, as it’s centrally located, and rather empty at the moment. Since I became an Elk this spring, the cost of staying here is much cheaper than staying at the lovely Dumbarton Quarry Camping area.
We rolled in yesterday, and got all set up. On our drive up Highway 101, we passed a portion of the Coyote Creek Trail in the San Jose Area that we just adore. We figured since the weather here isn’t blistering yet, we would ride on this trail today. We made contact with our friend, John, and asked if he’d like to join us. Fortunately he was available, and joined us for a wonderful 25 mile ride. He even treated us to lunch at the “12 Mile Station” restaurant at the golf course. Thanks John!!
The riding along Coyote Creek was delightful. Temperatures ranged from low 70’s to low 80’s, with a gentle breeze. There were lots of other riders and walkers on the trail, reminding us that spring has turned to summer, and we all want to be outside.
Looking forward to tomorrow’s ride. Stay tuned…
