    The sun rose over the horizon on a new day. Matt and I wanted to get an early start, but had to stop at a Walgreens pharmacy before we left Muskegon. Our early start was after 930am, but well worth it. I picked up my last prescription for prednisone today! I am finally am able…

    Matt, Rosie and I had a fantastic reunion Saturday afternoon. Matt had booked us a hotel so I could rest. It was nice to not hit the ground running as soon as I returned. Hugs, love and rest was what I needed. Sunday came quickly. We packed up and made it out around 1030am. After…

    Pedaling for the next couple of days has been a variable wind, rain and sun shining down kind of tour along Lake Erie. We left out of Fisherman’s Beach reasonably early. We had a light wind and lots of sunshine. As we rode into Erie, PA, Matt and I realized we needed a coffee, a…

    Matt and I were up early in Middleport. It was good to revisit the exact location where we met each other for the first time. The sunset on the water was beautiful with the evening fireworks. More positives were the breeze was quite nice overnight, cooling it off. After only 3 hours of uninterrupted sleep,…
