Dreaming of the Dreamy Draw

 

Per the City of Phoenix Water Services...

The Dreamy Draw bike path is now scheduled to be completed and opened in early 2023. Dreamy Draw Recreation Area and its facilities are anticipated to reopen in the summer of 2023. The drought pipeline will be in service as scheduled by the end of 2022 to address drought conditions. Restoration activities have been delayed due to supply chain issues and the high demand for construction services in the Valley. Information on the Dreamy Draw Recreation area project can be found at https://www.phoenix.gov/parks/trails/projects#dreamy

November 20 - Zookz

 

I'm doing El Tour de Tucson metric century with Alexis this Saturday, so look for Sunday's ride to be not too terribly long and flat as a board. Richard is going as well, except he'll be doing bike patrol, which is pretty much an all day thing. So Steve will be leading the 4's to Sip Coffee. The 3's will be heading to Zookz. 

Rock on...

November 13 - Morning Squeeze

 

Richard, Steve and gang are riding over to Daily Dose, via some sort of circular route I'm sure. The 3's will be heading off to Morning Squeeze (what used to be the First Watch downtown). I picked the destination due to its proximity to the Phoenix 10K at Wesley Bolin Plaza, as I'll be abandoning you after breakfast to see the wife finish her 10K. 

Here's an oldie, featuring the USC Marching Trojans. Rock on...

November 6 - Daily Jam

 

I have not received the November schedule from Richard yet, but will post it as soon as I get it. But the 3's will be taking an excursion to Tempe to visit Daily Jam. Unless Gary, king of Tempe Town Lake, has a suggestion for a tastier location to hit. 

One of my all-time favorite records, Chicago Transit Authority, Prologue/Someday August 29, 1968. 

Rock on...

Cockroaches

 

Regina's niece made this. I look forward to seeing her animation style and skills progress at art school.

October 30 - Luci's at the Grove

The Phoenix Water department keeps promising the Dreamy Draw will be open in late 2022. Which means we have no more than 10 Sundays to wait until we can see what they've done.

Expect to go up and down the Draw that first Sunday its open. In the meantime, this week Richard and company are heading to Coco's. Mike and the 3's are heading to Luci's at the Grove this week. 

Rock on...

October 23 - Wildflower Bread Co

 

Richard, Steve and the 4's are going north to The Burg this Sunday, and the 3's will be making up for last week's missed ride, and doing the Wildflower in Scottsdale. Maybe we'll get there this time. 

Here's one of my favorites. Sums up the human race pretty well. Rock on...
