Feliz Cumpleanos, Treinta y Tres

Happy Birthday to me,
I am 33,
We just had a baby
and her name is Juni!

Rollover

Not your cell phone minutes either...June chose to perform this little trick for gramma Brown while Samantha and I were on a date to see Hancock. We had been working on it for the last couple weeks but no luck. Gramma got it on film but it may take a minutte to get the photos as she has only recently entered the 21st century by purchasing a digital camera. As soon as she learns to use it she promises to send the pics along for all to see. Check flickr for them soon!

I want my MTV

I have to add this quick post as an update to the most recent BTR video post. At the Ritual Coffee event in SF last week a Street Team '08 journalist for MTV put together a great 3 minute plug for BTR!! Check it out here.

Bikes To Rwanda update + info

I mentioned that BTR is doing a lot this summer and I thought that I would post the links to the videos folks have made for and about us over the last year.
GOOD Magazine
Green Living Project (GLP)

...and look for a feature on BTR in the new issue of WEND magazine as well as on the GLP tour this summer to REI stores throughout the nation.

Also, when I picked up the mail today there was a letter, a flier and a cheque from a high school junior class in Vancouver, BC that did three bake sales this spring to support BTR and made alsmost $1500!! They enjoyed it so much that they petitioned the school to allow them to mentor the upcoming junior class to continue this as an annual event.

New Stuff

New blog, new pics of JuneBug on the flickr. Don't expect regular posts but I think it could be a good way to share.

In news:

Liam Jon Williams was born yesterday to Heather and Nick. We're really excited for them and for June to have a friend her age down the street. Pics to come soon.

BTR is getting some great recognition. Keep an eye out for lots of fun stories, events and developments this summer. BTR blog.

The newsstand is back online. Check out the latest drawings. The newest open date is mid-October, more to come soon.
