Stayed at a religious retreat hotel that is over 100
years old. Meals were simple and good with more meat than we are
used to. No after ride beer. The weather is cooler. |

Stayed in a motel. Got our after ride beer and had dinner
at a Chinese buffet. Took the bikes into a shop to be checked. They
only needed normal maintenance and had no problems. Weather is ok
for now. |

Stayed at Doug and Jan Rupert's house (they met them
at the Fountain Park camp). They got to the house before the Ruperts
returned. But that was okay because the Ruperts told them they were
welcome to use the key in the dog house (they didn't need to worry
about the dog who had run away). They took showers and washed their
clothes while waiting for the Ruberts to arrive. The weather was
good while they rode, but there was hail and tornados that night.

Hello P2P gals!
Your trip looks amazing, I have been following the progress.
Wyoming looked like it had some screaming rollercoaster downhills.
I hope when a few more decades go under my belly I can still keep
up with the P2P spirit. Gotta go try make some babies, Cowabunga
near Portland OR

What, you're in Michigan [Indiana] already? That means your trip
is on the downhill side. I'll bet you have mixed feelings about
that. Catherine, Pat and I spent a week bicycling through Colorado
and I feel as if it changed my life regarding feelings bout bike
touring. As Carolyn said, all you have to think about every day
is riding your bike. Take care, dudettes. |
