http://guikema.blogspot.com/2005_11_01_archive.html
Dennis on the Road. Wednesday, November 30, 2005. I just returned to Caracas from what seemed like a two-week long nature documentary. The beauty of the Caribbean, Los Andes and Los Llanos was so rich that almost every moment felt like a page from National Geographic or a scene from the travelogues my mom used to take me to see at Calvin College. Plaza Bolivar in the quite and historic village of Choroni. The road (if you can call it that! The Village of Los Nevados. Back in Merida, I signed up for a tou...

Dennis on the Road. Thursday, March 02, 2006. My friend Traci Todd is currently volunteering for Habitat for Humanity near New Orleans, helping to tear down the damage of Katrina, paving the way for rebuilding that is still a long way away. She is a great writer and provides an intimacy the media has a hard time delivering. Check out her blog at http:/ neuborne.blogspot.com/. Here's a couple excerpts:. Posted by Dennis @ 12:51 PM.

Dennis on the Road. Sunday, August 28, 2005. Jason in the news. My friend/sponsor/bike guru, jason, is featured in this article. After you get done with a four- or five-hour ride, it gives you the gift of an empty mind. You can enjoy things as they are. To me, that's powerful medicine.". Posted by Dennis @ 9:04 PM. Today would have been my mother’s 61st birthday and is about a month and a half since the fifth anniversary of her death. RIP: Barbara Jean Herrema-Guikema: August 28, 1944 - July 16, 2005.

Dennis on the Road. Sunday, July 31, 2005. The highlight of the summer has certainly been the time spent with family. I savored every moment that I got to spend with my 4-year-old niece Abigail (most of which was in or near the water.) What a great kid! The new pictures I posted.

Dennis on the Road: June 2005
http://guikema.blogspot.com/2005_06_01_archive.html
Dennis on the Road. Tuesday, June 28, 2005. What do you want to be when you grow up? Ormaybe teaching or principaling abroad- - now there's a thought! The reality is that I am purposely not. Making plans. As I responded to Judy, one of the promises that I made myself is that I’m going to leave w/o any defined plans for my return. This way I can really be open to the infinite possibilities rather than limiting myself to something I’ve predetermined. Who made the world? Who made the grasshopper? I've poste...

Dennis on the Road. Tuesday, December 27, 2005. Death defying christmas adventures. Murray, at 14.5 years old, feeling youthful in the snow. There was a moment at the very beginning of my Christmas journey when I was afraid that I would make the headlines but never make it back to Michigan. Pipe wielding madman slays holiday traveler. My dad, brother, and I on the Rouge River in front of Tom's new pad. Noah and Abigail (nephew and neice) with my Grandma and Grandpa Herrema in the background. I’m equally ...

Dennis on the Road. Friday, September 30, 2005. I’m two days away from my last race of the season and four days away from South America.
