Some Context

Lately I've been looking at recent Newsletters posts and have realized that you may need some context here.

I worked at SCANPH about five years ago and have gone to a lot of their events both as a volunteer as well as a presenter.  I got to know most of the people that worked there and I like what they are doing.  They recently moved house and have a lot of new and people.  I haven't met the new executive but I have known many of the board members.

While I have missed a lot of fun volunteer dates and a few bike-about-town events with the coalition I am definitely going to Winterfest. I went to it last year and had a lot of fun.  I would suggest that you attend too.  There is always good food, prizes and a lot of celebrities.  Last year a well known City Supervisor attended and made a big splash at the auction.

I haven’t decided if I am going to the AAG annual meeting yet. this year it is in LA and I am certain a lot of people that I know will be attending.  I have been going for years and last year I went to the meeting in NY.  I always have a lot of fun.

Speaking of Los Angeles, I would like to congratulate the LA Coalition for success with Lankershim Bl. I have ridden my bike around LA county and especially North Hollywood and am think that it is about time.  The Coalition has had a long struggle getting bike lanes into the local infrastructure in the San Fernando Valley.

On a more general note, I was just looking at this Modern Book gallery post. If the gallery is on Geary then where is this first photo?
