We went on an incredible 32 mile road bike ride yesterday from north of Fisherman’s Wharf in Monterey CA south along the coast into 17 mile drive and down to our turn around point at the Pebble Beach resort.

The left photo is from Lover’s Point and the cove in Pacific Grove looking toward the south east to Monterey about 8:30 yesterday morning.

The right photo is part of our Bike Club at the Lone Cypress on 17 Mile Drive on our way to Pebble Beach and our turnaround point.

The original intent of the ride yesterday was to do a 40 mile fast paced training ride to the north of Monterey along the rec trail. But the weather was so nice we decided to go south and enjoy the coast at a more relaxing 13+ mph pace.

Sometimes you have to slow down and smell the roses.

I walked Swami’s Beach at sunrise and framed the pebble mosaic against a soft horizon. This print presents the coast’s quiet complexity — cool blues and warm ochres balanced with rugged texture.

“'Seth Pollack spent his life teaching people how to see clearly – to look past easy narratives, sit with complexity, and do the hard work of understanding. It is a painful irony that in the days after his death, the story of how he died became one of those easy, inaccurate narratives.'

"They [Pollack’s family] are referring to a CHP [California Highway Patrol] statement immediately following the crash that Pollack was on the wrong side of the street, later determined to be unfounded.”
