Philadelphia Happenings

Plateau Mountain, Catskill NY - January 2009
Fact:
I experienced three consecutive winter seasons in one year, beginning in the northern hemisphere, second one in the southern hemisphere and the third back in the northern hemisphere yet again.

The northeast winter of 2009 has finally transitioned to Spring. For me, it was a winter of comfort and reunion. In January a few friends and I explored the familiar woods of the Catskills. During this time I filled my hours painting, job searching and bartending. When February rolled around, I headed south for about a week to Washington D.C. A job fair awaited me, which was really the guise to reunite with some good friends from Peace Corps.

The first week of March Ken and I flew out to San Francisco to visit some friends and family. We checked out Muir Woods and Sonoma Valley for the first time.

On my return from San Francisco I started my new job with the Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia. This May through September you may spot me cruising the streets of Philadelphia on a nice Fuji Tour bike, promoting safe bicycle transit while encouraging 'share the road' ideals with motorists and bicyclist alike.

Yup, that's me all right. I'll be one of the poster children in the Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia's new info booklet!
Look for it.
