This blog entry is more of a quest than a tutorial. I am going to share my process for making what I call my “Zebra” or Encased Twisty beads, and invite others to share their process. I’ve never taken a single lampworking class. For my first 3 years of lampworking, I spent a long time reading thread ...

Well before I started this trip, I knew the Goldwing would need a periodic service while on the road. I determined that the best time would be during the two days I’m in Twentynine Palms. Before I left Washington I called the dealer over in Yucca Valley, Hutchins Motorsports, a Honda and Harley deal ...

It wends its way down from Imnaha Highway near Joseph through the Hells Canyon back-country past a number of peaks in the Blue Mountains range before dropping you out east of Halfway.

View Larger Map At 3am I was awakened to what I thought was pounding at the door. I’m thinking WTF??? Then as I gain my bearings, I realize the noise is coming from the room directly above mine.

Another fantastic Central Oregon route, here we have over 80 miles of nearly unbroken sweepers and hairpins in the Ruggs – Mitchell segment of Oregon Route 207. As this route does one of those strange Oregon multi-plexing things where it forms an ‘X’ across North Central oregon with Route 19, I’ll d ...

View Larger Map I shouldn’t hurt this bad on a Sunday morning. The frogs were up very early and woke me up. You’d think they’d be just a bit kinder on this morning.

View Larger Map After a good night’s rest, woke up to the three alarms on the writswatch. Sort of a built-in snooze as they are set about 5 minutes apart.
