New Year...New Sprouts

Good news first! We are going to become Grandparents, most likely in the month of May (maybe a Gemini baby). We have retired from the business that we owned and operated for 31 years...BBQMS is no longer. This is not our first retirement. Lisa retired from the USDA (Forest Service) in 2014 after thirty years of servitude...hard physical labor while looking out for the safety and well-being of visitors to the Lassen and Plumas National Forests. We also retired from our bicycle touring business, Outback With Bodfish in '95 after fifteen years of guiding bicycle-mounted folks onto the backroads and trails throughout remote areas of California. I like to say this new year begins an era of 'All Play and No Work'. We are free to wander and explore as a family of three.. our dog Nori always loves a good adventure. Needless to say, many of our future van (Seymour) trips will be along a wide corridor between Northern California and Park City, Utah.
