Rolling Along!

We are through the state of Michigan! And about half way through Wisconsin! The roads have flattened out, so as long as the wind isn't blowing too hard against us, the riding is pretty easy going. Along the way we met Randy, he is a serious cyclist and invited us to camp in his back yard. Before we knew it , he and his wife, Edwina, had fed us dinner, let us take showers, let us do laundry and insisted we sleep in their house on real beds! Ev and I feel so lucky to have met such giving people! 
We also met up with our friend Erik from Holland again! What a fantastic surprise when we rolled onto the campsite and saw that he was there! Last night, we shared dinner with our new friends Craig and Sarah. They were vacationing at the campsite with their two daughters and had met a cyclist this time last year at the same campground who was cycling the same route as we are this year. They are such great people and meeting them ended our day in a great way! We hit 1500 miles today!
