http://mk52new.blogspot.com/2015/06/47-visit-santa-barbara.html
Sunday, June 14, 2015. 47 - Visit Santa Barbara. I was hoping that this one would include a full weekend - or at least a full 24 hours - in Santa Barbara. But, since I stopped and had a dinner, I'm counting it. When I planned my road trip up the coast. Through airbnb, which worked out great. I did manage to drive through Santa Barbara and to catch a meal at Brophy Bros. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Check Out My Friends' List Blogs Too!

52 New: #57 - Drive to San Francisco... or Further North
http://mk52new.blogspot.com/2015/06/57-drive-to-san-francisco-or-further.html
Monday, June 22, 2015. 57 - Drive to San Francisco. or Further North. I set an intention for this trip before I even started planning: savor the journey. I had to remind myself a few times. There are so many places along the coast I'd love to visit, to spend some time, to really explore. But this trip wasn't about any of the destinations. It was about the journey. I could have started the Pacific Coast Highway. Here in San Diego, but I had to make it all the way to Grover Beach. Grover Beach runs right a...

52 New: July 2015
http://mk52new.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 19, 2015. 2 - Sail on the Ocean. Sunfishing on Brant Lake. I grew up sailing Sunfish on Brant Lake, NY. At my beloved Camp Michigania East. It's time to come back now! And we play dumb and agree. It's a tradition I treasure. We also have a song we sing, but I'll keep that between my camp friends and me. I say this in the present tense because even when I was back a couple years ago, we did a version of this very thing, even as very much full-grown adults. It was a bit intimidating sailing a ...

http://mk52new.blogspot.com/2015/06/31-go-to-eugene-oregon.html
Thursday, June 18, 2015. 31 - Go to Eugene, Oregon. For a lot of people, this probably seems like a very random town to be on a list of places to visit. For runners, it's an obvious choice. Is the home of the University of Oregon. Which, at one time, was the home track of Steve Prefontaine. Pre," one of the greatest, and most tragic, runners of all time. There are much more well-researched books. Which still maintains its relationshpi with the University of Oregon in honor of its origin. In the yard of q...

Monday, August 17, 2015. 87 - Visit 3 New Museums. Museum #1: Institute of Contemporary Art (ICA). When I wrote this list item, I intended to make some visits to Balboa Park. Which is just a mile from where I live. I can even bike, or walk, there. I probably would more often if my neighborhood didn't rest on a steep hill, Balboa Park didn't rest on a gradual hill, or there were some sort of bridge in between. It is a collaboration between sculptor Ian Schneller. And violinist Andrew Bird. Who plays an or...
