Welcome To JB’s FunStuff Site

Hi All!

Welcome to the July update! Happy 250 to the USA. 🇺🇸

Things didn’t quite go as planed for week #2 but it’s nice to have a down day every now and them. The down day also helped with doing the Anything Fun Meetup marathon walk (which included bonus miles). Kinda sad I wound up doing it solo. So that’s the end of happy/sad that story. Coming up for the mid month stuff will be the Brazen Bad Bass and Davis Moonlight. Sunday is a meetup hike from Hacienda to Mt Uhm but may change plan if I’m going to be solo.

Here are a few pics from the last pair of weekends four run events:

As usual, the list of upcoming events can be found on JB’s Fun tracker for 2026

If you haven’ t had a chance to look at the highlights have a look at  2025 Activities Highlight Video which is also available on Youtube!

There have been two new yearly highlight videos added to the Past Adventures and Yearly Highlights for 2016 and 2017. These are also on YouTube and will most likely be publish for open viewing (not that anyone would ever want to watch these things) <grin>
