"When you're there I sleep lengthwise,
and when you're gone I sleep diagonal in my bed"
--Phish
I win for random music quotes. I don't think this has anything to do with our trip. In fact, I always sleep lengthwise, but usually on the floor or ground. I don't even believe this is relevant or a true statement.
UPDATE: Trek paniers = falilure
We replaced my paniers that failed just two days ago. We got the same pair (maybe a bad idea, but that is insignificant) They broke again. Now I have my left panier bungee corded to the top of my rack with a tent, and an extremely large dry bag. I feel lopsided. DO NOT BUY TREK PANIERS.
Other than that our last two days have been great. We love Canada and Canadians. Canadians remind me a lot of midwesterners in that they are really friendly, except that they have a Canadian accent. I still really enjoy that accent.
The farmland has much more varied crops here than we have seen yet. We are seeing orchards with cherries, apples, peaches, etc. as well as fields of asparagus, tobacco, wheat, corn. We even saw an elk farm.

"Ay" Guys,
Hope all is going well in the "Great White North". At this point, you must be about 500 miles further in your epic journey since your last blog posting. Patrick, thanks for clarifying how unrelated your Phish quote was to your bike ride. I read the quote to Ame and said "what does that have to do with their ride". Everything is going pretty well on this end. The roof works fine and the cat is doing well.
Speaking of epic journeys, I just saw Mrs. Henneghan go out on an epic run. She looked tough!
Best,
Jerry, Sydney, Sam,and Wil
PS Remember as the great philosopher and poet Freddie Mercury said "Bicycle, Bicycle, Bicycle, I want to ride my bicycle, I want to ride my bike". Remember when you read this quote and start singing it in your heads also remember the bells played in the original recording of this tune.
