Still Ridin’
Okay, so it’s now day 3 of the bike trip. If it wasn’t obvious, I need to tell you that I am describing the basics of our trip, before it has actually happened. The posts this week were written last week and saved in queue for my daily readers. As per my usual routine, I take a break from posting for the days I am on the trip. I try to get off the electronic grid as much as possible for this vacation, yet I sneak in a visit to nearby establishments that might have a Stanley Cup hockey game (or World Cup Soccer every 4th year) on for viewing.
I hope to capture the highlights in my hand-written journal that I like to scribe when I settle into my tent for the night. I get to that after I spend a few precious minutes tickling the strings of my travel guitar that spends the night in the tent with me.
Anyway, back to day-3… Since it is Monday, it finally feels genuinely like being on vacation. If all goes according to plan, we will have spent the night tenting in Superior. Today we are riding to Bayfield, where we get to spend 2-nights camped in the same location. It is always a treat to not need to get up early and pack the dew-covered tent for one day out of the week.
