A Day Off To Do Chores...And Maybe To Rest Our Weary Legs

Monday, October 20, 2014

We decided last night that we needed to take a day off. Our laundry was in dire need of doing. Our groceries, Sue says, have never been this low. And of course it poured rain overnight. The tent handled the overhead rain but did not like the river that flowed underneath it. So we are wet! We have moved into Fort Bragg to the Motel 6. It has lousy Wi fi so we are heading to Starbucks to hopefully post the last 3 days of blogs. We have clean clothes and are heading out to do the grocery shopping.

Just FYI. Chris told us last night that his GPS bike computer said we would have climbed almost 3500 feet yesterday. I guess that is why our legs need a rest.

We are surprised by how much rain we are experiencing here in California. This area has experienced almost no rainfall this year. Things are parched. I guess it is like a friend said to us when we crossed Canada, "You guys should start a second career as 'rain makers'...Two Wheels In Transit guarantees rain"! And as I write this the thunder is rumbling...and remember California does not get thunderstorms...at least until Two Wheels In Transit arrives!!!
