Trip reports coming soon. In the meantime, here are a few of my favourite pics from 18 days trekking around 3 of the highest peaks in the world.

PeaceLoveCar
I’ve not owned a vehicle for most of the last 14 years.
But the PeaceLoveCar is tempting.
Sam Salwei lives in a 28-square-foot pod. It was built in 1988, and formerly the car was known as a Ford Festiva.
Salwei, a founding member of the YogaSlackers group and a GearJunkie contributor, calls his highly-modified vehicle the PeaceLoveCar.
A solar panel on the roof gives power. The seats fold down into a bed. Under the hood is an oven. “We bake burritos in there,” Salwei notes. The back seat has a fridge.
408,841 miles grace the odometer. The Guinness World Record for a Festiva, Salwei says, is 640,000 miles. “I might break it.” …
Thanks Dave.
I don’t watch TV
… too busy doing cool stuff in the out of doors. Hiking. Cycling. That kind of thing …

Diana Hughes – 50 miler
Congratulations are in order.
Diana successfully completed a 50 mile bike race. … I don’t believe it was up and down Mt Hood, but I could be wrong. 🙂
more Port Townsend photos
This is the last of them. 🙂
I’ve seen a LOT of wild animals in my day. But very few raccoons.
That’s the family that tried to take up residence in Carrie’s treehouse.
Nice place to retire …
more random Port Townsend, Washington photos
Jeni likes nearby Sequim as a retirement town. She grew up there.
… Sequim lies within the rain shadow of the Olympic Mountains and receives on average less than 16 inches (410 mm) of rain per year—about the same as Los Angeles, California—and has given itself the nickname of Sunny Sequim. …
farewell Port Townsend
I’ve been hanging around for WEEKS, seems. Gymming, hiking, biking …
But today at 5am I’m off to Coeur d’Alene on a Tumbl Trak Ambassador visit.
Last night in town we celebrated my departure at Dos Okies Barbecue and the Pour House.
THANKS once again to Doug and Diana for their kind hospitality. James stays on for another week or more.

cycling Cape Town
Kyle Shewfelt recommended getting on a bike. He had done a big race out of Cape Town earlier in the year.
Fantastic easy day for me, riding the city coast.
Lovely city.
See more of my photos from that day in high resolution on flickr.
