A slow, flat ride on the peninsula

I took a short ride from Manila to the U.S. Coast Guard station and back this morning.



I stopped at the Humboldt Bay Maritime Museum and admired this life boat. It's huge.




Oh buoy!



Got that?



Further down the peninsula I could see that the coasties were up to something. Here's one boat.



And another.



The Humboldt County Sheriff's boat was also involved.



I stopped and watched remote control model planes at the Samoa International Airport.



My bike is a sweet ride. It's not a light bike, nor is it a fast bike. It's a sturdy touring bike. I'm very pleased with its performance.



This song was going through my head during the ride, and after.
