Yes you read the above correctly. We are in Maine. Although we are
still planning reach the water, at this point we can all say that we
biked from California to Maine. When the wind is just right, I am
sure I can small the ocean.
It was still hot today, but the cycling was a lot more pleasant.
While we still had temperatures into the nineties, once we crossed
into Maine the forests came a lot closer to the roads, and there was
a lot more shade, and it made a big difference. Also, Maine is not
as hilly as the two previous states, and that also helped.
WE GOT MOOSE! Yes we finally spotted wild moose. There they were,
standing by the pond enjoying the cool water and vegetation. We have
been having some problems uploading new pictures to Smugmug, but
don't worry; they will soon be up there.
Today, I cycled seventy-five miles, ten of which was unnecessary,
but were we intended to is now a real estate office, so we had to
back pedal. But I guess a few small detours should be expected on a
trip this long. How long? 3,587 miles, 125,736 feet and two months
and one day.
