Here are some photos from his visit.

I am off to the East Coast manana en la manana for a cousin’s wedding. Sunday has me in Chicago for a Cubs game with BootsnAll member and friend Freesia. Right after we are cruising back to her family’s pad for a nite of Italian Food and Soprano’s watching. I will attempt to document the experience.
Sporadic e-mail for the next few days…peace

A Look Back at 2008
It's the time of the year when, coupled with the excitement for the new year ahead, thoughts tend to stray backwards to the year past. Just about every sports show on TV will have a montage of the year's best highlights set to a rockin' soundtrack. News programmes will recap …

Alastair and I went to the Banff film festival trying to find other adrenaline junkies to attend his slide show at PCC Cascade Campus. At the end of the show, he and I went outside and handed out fliers. Most people usually don’t like fliers, and thought we were trying to support some concert. So, in order to get them to take the fliers, I started saying, “this guy is from National Geographic and is riding his bike around the world.” As soon as I said, National Geographic, everyone wanted to take a flier.
We ended up attracting about 100 people to his slideshow, the highest volunteer group in Portland so far.
