Old Santa Cruz Highway

Lydia rode their bike to San Jose to pedal back with me for the last 40 miles of the trip. What a treat! Here we are performing “Ahead Tree Shadow,” a setting of a poem from Morton Marcus’ Santa Cruz Mountain Poems. After making it up a steep road though the mountains in the shade of oaks and redwoods, we were rewarded with a downhill grade that took us all the way to Santa Cruz. Thanks for joining and singing with me, Lydia!
