Today has been preparation day. First stop was Walmart to by an 'ice cooler'. Then to the supermarket to buy some provisions. We have been to two bike shops for some bargains. First picy is our recovery session in michael's room. Second is me in front of our mini van. It likes to go in straight lines and has lots of room.







Tomorrow we tackle mt diablo on the bay side and then follow up with BBQ at my friend steve's.

Dinner last night was mexican at happy hour prices and tonight it's Italian near the airport. Weather is great about 25 with lots of sun and light winds. Everyone is friendly to us and the traffic is not too busy.
