We have a Carnegie Library here in Santa Cruz, CA, too!

Yes we do. We meet the nicest people on bike tours. It's really different than traveling by car.

Don't you love small town friendliness?

I've used the rack, but not for pizza yet.

The local story is that the owner had a connection from the second story of his house for the use of his wife and seven daughters. The outhouse is privately owned and has been largely reconstructed. The adjacent home is long gone.

Good question! Using trees for "yard art" seems to be the thing on our route this year. It isn't something we have noticed before, but folks have gotten very creative with their stumps.

It' s amazing what crazy things you'll see on a bike ride! Makes you wonder how the heck did they get that tractor up there???

Have you carried a pizza on it yet? We need a photo!

Do they get that much snow? We toured a two story outhouse in Wyoming. They said the snow was so deep in the winter, the top story was necessary. I see this one also has an upstairs door.

I guess if all our routes were like this, we wouldn't appreciate these roads as much when we found them.

Roads to dream about….you keep finding them too….

Mind!
