Boxed and ready at SMF
Are we crazy? Are we trying to hold off aging? Are we just trying to have fun? For whatever reason we are flying to Quebec City on August 24th and heading off through Canada and into Maine on the 27th for a three plus month bike trip along the East Coast of the US. We’ll have all our gear including a tent and sleeping bags on our bikes for what will most likely be a real adventure with hopefully more pluses than minuses coming our way. We’re keeping this blog in order to have a record of our trip when we’re finished, and we hope some of you will add to it with a few comments along the way. We hope to add some pictures to each entry as well. That’s it for now–see you in Quebec City–Carol and Dick

Hope it stays dry for you now. I loved Charleston and remember a great “Southern” lunch many years ago. Savannah is wonderful also. Enjoy!

Are you going to eat at Mrs. Wilkes’ Boarding House in Savannah? Willard Scott often mentioned it on the Today Show. I ate there many years ago and it was great.

Hi Carol and Dick,
Well you must be near the end of your journey to Key West. What a wonderful adventure you have had together. I have enjoyed your great naratives and will miss them. Do hope you can adjust back to your life at home and that you will not be bored! How are you traveling to Bottony Bay? Have a blessed Thanksgiving.
Congratulations with love and hugs,
Linda
