Camping in the City

Ironically, one of the most primitive campsites we've used on this trip is located inside the city limits of San Francisco. The traffic across the Golden Gate Bridge sounds like a river from our tents at Rob Hill Campground in the Presidio. Just a quick bike ride away are markets, laundromat, and an Internet Cafe. Life is sweet!

It's a gorgeous sunny day in Central California. The babies are running nearly naked and enjoying Michele & Tala's attention, while I catch up with plans for a discussion in San Jose. The city goes about its business, barely aware of our presence. We've talked with some local cyclists, but have not yet heard a commitment from any to organize a convergence ride to DC. At least we've sown some seeds...

Our gratitude goes out to all the wonderful people who've made this ride possible. You are the Catalysts of HOPE! We are delighted with this opportunity to weave a network between you and hopeful that our collaborations will help to heal the planet and bring sustainable peace.
