Morgan Hill – Riveted

One Last Ride – Coyote Creek Trail

Kevin finished up at the conference and came back to the Airstream this afternoon in time for us to take a nice 17 mile bike ride.

We rode to the store and got some supplies to make burgers (grass-fed beef, chorizo, lettuce for buns, tomato, gorgonzola, and some yams to make truffled yam fries). We mix a little chorizo in with the extra lean beef (and some of our spice rub) and it makes a really killer burger. Well, the one other time we did it, it made a really killer burger. I cooked them inside that time, and tonight we're doing them on the Traeger, so I think this time they'll be even better.

Tomorrow morning we'll head north. We're going to aim for Emigrant Lake up by Ashland tomorrow. It's Friday, so it'll likely be a gamble whether we get a spot or not. Fingers crossed!

14 Miles on Coyote Creek Trail

I rode this morning into Morgan Hill via the Coyote Creek Trail (14.14 miles). We're having the gang over to the Airstream tonight again (taco night!) and I decided we needed some chips and salsa. (Meaning: an excuse to go back to the store on my bike!)

It hasn't rained once today, and it's just beautiful out.

But apparently, there no American Saddlebreds allowed on the bike path:

I stayed back at the Airstream and worked while Kevin conferenced it up yesterday and I needed a break from the dinette office, so I went for a short ride on the Coyote Creek Trail (6.5 miles). It was a stormy sky and a windy ride.

It rained so hard yesterday evening! We had our team (well, the part of our team that's in San Jose this week for work) over to the Airstream last night for dinner. After a while it stopped raining and the sky cleared (but just down toward the horizon) and the sunset was gorgeous. I made the zucchini noodle thing with creamy avocado sauce and chicken breast that I've now made three times in two weeks. It's still really good and I'll try to take photos next time so I can post the recipe for you!
