Bike to Work Day cycles through Joe Rodota Trail rain or shine
Cyclists around Sonoma County skipped their car rides and hopped on their bikes, despite drizzly gray weather in honor of Bike to Work Day on Thursday, May 12. In Sebastopol, the Joe Rodota Trail served as the main route to and from Santa Rosa, where many cyclists headed to their destinations.

The Disney animators seem to have gotten their “groove” back with “Frozen,” and the result is an enjoyable holiday film that actually deserves to be labeled a “classic.” The studio expands its Princesses’ franchise with two royals—a Scandinavian blonde named Elsa (voice of Broadway’s Idina Menzel) and her younger, redheaded sister Anna (voice of Kristen Bell). When Elsa’s magical ice-powers go awry (by creating an indoor blizzard and accidentally freezing her sister’s head), the two girls are forced by their parents to grow up separately to keep Anna safe from any other magical mishaps.
