Solano Co.

I spent the day out in Solano County for work, and lemme tell ya: This is the perfect time of year to go for a hike. Everything is green, and blooming, and pretty. It was warm, but not too hot. I would recommend Rockville Park for some great rock outcrops, and good views.

In boat news: The Edith is back up and running. We got some new structural pieces in, and a temporary fuel tank, so river tours/cleanup will be on for the summer! Yay! This weekend Laurel will be staying up here, and playing in the yard, poking the cat, and making fun of Kirby (who is also putting in a guest appearance). I'm hoping to get both of them out on the boat on Saturday. It should be fun.

In political news this week: Free Mind Media (www.fmmg.org) got a space! I'll steal the paragraph off of the web page that miles put together because it explains them best:

Free Mind Media is a distribution point for radical alternatives to mainstream media and information, and a community center. Our mission is to create a proving ground for radical ideas, and to foster a culture of resistance dedicated to progressive social change. We are very proud to announce the opening of an infospace and radical library in central Santa Rosa. Please come by our space, check it out, and give us a hand getting settled in.

I've been working with them off an on over the last year and a half, and they've achieved their long held goal of getting a space. It'll open sometime near 4/1, and there's plans afoot for a big grand openning art show/snacks/thing on May Day (5/1). They're at 546 Pacific in SR. Check them out.
