High on our list of gratitudes this April 2 are two faithful donors to the Bicycling Monterey work: Kathleen Jones / @Kleen and Martin Dehmler Fine Cabinetmaking. Both donated again today! Both know that regardless of what else is happening in our country or world, we can all find ways to keep on doing what we can, right where we are, to make our country and world a better place!
