I am mostly retired, but write articles on taxation and teach periodically in a local law school in Seattle where my wife and I have our home. Over the years, we've spent considerable time in France doing self-contained bicycle touring.

We've been bicycling regularly since 1979 with our first self-contained tour in 1983 (from Houston to Austin and back in July...not so smart).

Our favorite destination has been France for the past three decades, but we've bicycled in the US, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, England, Spain, and Japan as well. In 2024, we did some touring in the spring in British Columbia, Canada, for the first time, and then returned to France in the autumn. And in 2025, we did some pedaling in Arizona and Texas in the winter, followed by a return to France in the autumn.
