True Confessions of a Seven Foot Man : Battle of the Sexes
http://tallguynextdoor.blogspot.com/2013/12/battle-of-sexes.html
True Confessions of a Seven Foot Man. Sunday, December 29, 2013. Battle of the Sexes. Tomorrow, I will be fighting for my life. Well, at least for some self-respect. Tanya and I will be running in a 5km race around our neighborhood. It'll be a race of two: mano y mano. Rewind to New Year's Eve, 2011. While announcing our resolutions for 2012, I stumbled. For years, I was resolute in not buying a new car. However, not only did I get a new car. At midnight on the 4th of July in 2009, we ran in the Firecrac...

EV Road Trip: July 2013
http://evroadtrip.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Pioneering 21st century Americana. Friday, July 19, 2013. British Columbia to Baja California to British Columbia: BC2BC2BC. Yes, driving a Nissan LEAF that far is nuts. But it is not as outlandish as one may presume. Driving a quick charge-capable EV, like the LEAF, from state to state is actually a fairly painless experience. Of course, with the current state of the CHAdeMO. West Coast CHAdeMO Quick Charger Locations. That brings me back to today's experience of returning to Blaine. Easily driving ...

EV Road Trip: BC2BC: The Untold Story
http://evroadtrip.blogspot.com/2013/11/bc2bc-untold-story.html
Pioneering 21st century Americana. Saturday, November 16, 2013. BC2BC: The Untold Story. Published was more than two weeks later, after we had been home for two days. Since returning home in mid-July, the narrative that I share with friends and family has included much more than the time that was originally documented from Canada to San Francisco. Actually, I tend to talk with them more about our return trip. There was relief for us at the Santa Rosa stage location, though, as the next rally departure wa...

EV Road Trip: EV Scenic Byways: Historic Columbia River Highway
http://evroadtrip.blogspot.com/2014/01/ev-scenic-byways-historic-columbia.html
Pioneering 21st century Americana. Monday, January 20, 2014. EV Scenic Byways: Historic Columbia River Highway. Broadly defined as those cultural bits that we identify ourselves with at various moments in our history. For some, Americana defines us on a personal level. In the U.S., Americans are free to travel from sea to shining sea as easily as commuting to work from the burbs. Allow the freedom to travel long distances. The requirement of traveling to work was satisfied with the release of the fir...

EV Road Trip: June 2013
http://evroadtrip.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Pioneering 21st century Americana. Sunday, June 30, 2013. BC2BC: Here We Go! Sabrina and I drove our first day of the BC2BC All Electric Vehicle Rally yesterday. In total, we covered 340 miles going from Bellingham, WA into Canada (more on that in moment), and south to Cornelius, OR. The start of the rally fun, as a few dozen EV owners showed up to show their support. I was extremely nervous in those couple of hours leading up to the rally start, and sure appreciated everybody's excitement and enthus...

EV Road Trip: Seattle to Disneyland--Is it possible in a Nissan LEAF?
http://evroadtrip.blogspot.com/2014/02/road-trip-from-seattle-to-disneyland-is.html
Pioneering 21st century Americana. Thursday, February 6, 2014. Seattle to Disneyland- Is it possible in a Nissan LEAF? When I was in fifth grade, I watched, for the first time, National Lampoon's Vacation. It was a fantastically inappropriate movie for a 10-year-old to watch, and it was AMAZING! Clark Griswold became my closet hero, and I longed to one day take my future family on a cross-country trip to Walley World. To my surprise, Nissan looks to be tackling the infrastructure issue itself with some r...
