Final Day - Take Me Home Country Road

We're home . . .

1581 miles . . .

We're still friends . . . probably better ones.

Thanks to Grandpa Dell and Grandma Lois for being great support on the ride and for preparing great food . . .

Thanks to Ali and Scott who joined us for the last two days . . .

Thanks to our families for their moral support . . . especially to Carol for allowing me to leave for 25 days.

Thanks to Jesus for keeping us safe on the road for twenty-five days through thunder storms, very cold weather, snow and hail, really fast drivers, and times of "oatmeal for brains".

Thanks to Rhett for riding with us even though he probably could have been home a week ago.

Steve is ready to do another ride as soon as our bicycles are tuned up. Even though I don't have a "real" job, I do have a few things lined up for the next few months and some even pay "real" money. I think Terry might have something to say about this situation as well. By the way Rhett is looking for "real" work. He has a bachelor of science degree. We have lots of pictures and will put some more of them up on the internet soon. For now that's it. Thanks to all of you for following our Epic Adventure and for your prayers . . . until next time.

TTFN

From Mare Sullivan (couldn't get the post to work): I've had fun following your Epic Adventure and praying for all of you along the way. May your homecomings be sweet!

The ride to and from BCS is looking a bit lame compared to your pictures. However, the wind and cold temperatures are definitely liabilities I am willing to forgo. And I did see a dead raccoon yesterday - wildlife! Okay, maybe wilddeath? -- Mare Sullivan
