I must cycle as we make our way home to even up my tan. Now I have a noticeable tan from my shorts line to the bend in my knees and on the right side of my lower right leg, that is where the afternoon western sun has been hitting. The inside of the right leg and both sides of my lower left leg are without a tan. It all looks odd.
I picked up a paperback to carry in my bike bags but made the mistake of getting the only mystery I have with me that is in French. I can read it a little but I am not fluent so the reading misses some points.
As we were backing up to our camping spot in this Ochlockonee State Park one fellow pacing said that what he does is back up until he hears glass and then pull forward a bit. Sounds like the humor of David's cousin Mac.
We have encountered two ticks and now I am covered with the bites of sand fleas, and to think I was worried about alligators.
About Me
- Wheeling for Women; The Heroine's Journey
- United States
- Are we not all on a heroine's or heroe’s journey? It is my younger daughter who first led me into biking, a bit of running and Yoga. As the retirement years approach I now see that I can spend my time in physical sport, a new passion for me, and help people at the same time. For the past two years, I came in first in my age category for the Standard Olympic Triathlon in Farmington, New Mexico ( the first race of my adult life). A native New Mexican, born in Albuquerque, I have lived in several states and abroad but for thirty years have lived Farmington,NM. I have a marvelous husband, three adult children and five grandchildren and many friends who are supporting this cycling venture.
