As Bill mentioned, we are here in our hometown. He nicely detailed the last few days in his post.
We have been extremely busy today, trying to tie up loose ends and running errands. We had the good fortune to arrive here during Crazy Days. For those of you who do not live here, that means Dave Marie's Island Chicken. What a great treat for lunch.
We have been busy making changes on our bikes. Pat is trying to get rid of the BOB trailer, which he has come to dislike intensely. I share those feelings for obvious reasons. I stopped by the Hostel Shoppe and had an unnder seat rack installed to increase my carrying capacity and to repair some of the damage to the bike from the crash.
The thing that has surprised me the most on this trip is how inspiring this is to many people. The young man in Melrose, MN who wanted our autograph just because he was so excited that we are doing this was quite an eye opener. I hope some people get excited enough to dust off the old bike and take it for a spin around the Green Circle or some favorite roads.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to our good friends Karen and Carl Knuese while they deal with all that has come their way.
