Yesterday I rode about 20 miles to get to Raymond, NE. The sun was out, but it was another windy day. The winds were coming from the north/northwest. These are the cooler winds, as the winds coming from the south/southwest are usually warmer.
I arrived at my friend's Mary and Dan's house later on in the afternoon. They live on a small farm, with two horses. It was so nice to see familiar faces, even though I just met them a few days ago.
After Mary got home from work, we went into the Capital City of Lincoln for a nice dinner right across from their train station. The area that we dined in, is not far from the University of Nebraska. It is a very cool section of the city, with many nice shops and places to eat. There were many motorcyclists there, as they meet downtown, every now and then.
I am being bestowed with much love from my new friends and I am so grateful for this.
I often wonder, how I can give back the love that so many people have given me. I am just amazed and touched by everyone who has helped me. I feel very blessed.
I am taking a zero day; as referred to on the Appalachian Trail. This is a day, when I will not exercise to make my way east. I am catching up on things; such as my blog(still trying to figure why I can't upload photos), laundry, thank you notes and my journal. I will also go for a walk around the neighborhood. I have been putting in a lot of miles lately and needed time to just reflect on all of the good things that have been coming my way.
Thanks everyone!!!
You are so fortunate to meet such welcoming and generous people. I'm so glad to hear that you were able to rest along the way.
