Joy to the World - for the mountains and the plains, the grizzly and the antelope - for the coyote lullaby
ReplyDeleteand the morning greeting of the meadowlark. we ask for His protective arms around you as a shield against the varmints - to and four legged and those that slither - against the saddle sore pain - against the tedium of pedaling,pedaling, and pedaling. let us rejoice in the endless beauty of our land. the passing of another time zone and the glorious opportunity for mother and daughter to support each other and bond ever closer.
love
mom

My sister Shawn and my brother-in-law Jim met you two the other day on their ride coast-to-coast going west. They gave you our phone number. I just want to let you know you are very welcome to stay here as you travel thru Michigan (if you come thru our area). We are not official warm shower hosts, but welcome you never-the-less. We live on a gravel road, but we have a pickup truck and would be glad to give you and your bikes a ride the 3/4mile to our home from the paved road. We live 1 1/2 miles from Lake Huron about 5 miles north of Lexington, MI (east side of the thumb of Michigan). God be with you as you travel.
ReplyDeletedid you know
ReplyDeletethat your journey would evolve into a challenge to body mind and spirit
that you would discover so many wonderful people
