This weekend’s #BreakthroughT1DRide in Cape Cod was fantastic. I completed the full 100 mile route and the ride raised a little over $2 million for diabetes research.

This is what we looked like at our first JDRF, now Breakthrough T1D Ride 21 years ago. On Saturday we'll be riding in Cape Cod, a bit older, a bit grayer, but still committed to finding a cure for Type 1 Diabetes. There's still time to donate. Thank you. www2.breakthrought1d.org/site/TR?fr_i...

In 18 days we will be riding in Cape Cod to help raise funds to find a cure for Type 1 diabetes. This will be the 21st year that Mary and I have been participating in rides with Breakthrough T1D. If you'd like to donate this year, please follow the link. www2.breakthrought1d.org/site/TR?fr_i...

Not all who wander are lost. Some of us are just looking for coffee.

Started my day yesterday by brewing coffee from a local roster at home. Then I deactivated my X account. Finished the day by going to a celebration of local music and paying cash for the tickets and drinks.

I’ve been planning on deactivating my X account. Tomorrow during the boycott seems like an excellent time to do it.

The professional way to say “I told you so.” - “This was identified early on as a likely outcome.”

We had fun this weekend visiting our granddaughter and her parents.
