I’d sneak up one night and steal the Hollywood sign One of the more exciting escapades on my Harley Fatboy, took place shortly before I joined Deb and Michael, back in Michigan, 30 years ago. We had been living in Northern California for 14 years, (I don’t count the first two months in LA), seven years up in the foothills in Tuolumne County, first, in the historic Gold Rush Town of Columbia and then on a 90-acre spread on the North Fork of the Tuolumne River. After that, I went to work, managing

Don’t even pretend I don’t hear some of you out there: “Negus must’ve finally run out of stories by now about his so-called interesting life. ‘Life of High Adventure,’ Haw-haw, right!

Dang it. It’s dinner time on a Tuesday night, I’m hungry and I’m a day late starting my column. When I am hungry, I tend to have the attention span of a raccoon. I should be writing or at least thinking about writing while my marinara de la Negus percolates. Instead, I’m staring blankly at the pair of goldfinches on the feeder outside my kitchen window. See what I mean?Concentrate, man, concentrate. OK, as several of you may recall, I had been chronicling all the times in my life when I came clo
