Yesterday I drove 952 miles. I left at 5:30, drove to Well NV, met Dave and Phyl who had driven from Deer Lodge MT. Amazingly we arrived at our meeting point within minutes of each other. After a short break, we all got back into our vehicles and drove home. Phyl and I got back to my house at 7:30 pm, just 30 minutes before the curfew required us to be off the streets.

at Jim & Lucy’s:

Thirteen of them have arrived at Justin’s.
Today while riding I saw the runner ahead of me come to a quick stop and bend over. I slowed down. She rescued a turtle from the middle of the trail! She decided to put the turtle in the shade closer to the canal which runs along the trail.
Another feel-good moment on a bike ride.
My calendar abbreviation for Thursday at Merrilyn’s is Th@M. Now there’s a new consistent abbreviation for Thursday at Jim & Lucy’s.
Spring rolls and Shrimp avocado black bean salsa. And wine!
