Now it's THREE!
Karen's thoughts as we go under three
weeks before leaving ....
Less than 3 weeks left! So much to do yet, so
little time! In reality, looking at our "to do" list, we are actually doing ok
getting ready.....then why do I feel so
overwhelmed?It was only mid January
that we even thought we could pull this off this year. It seems like so long ago
and yet here we are down to the final phase now. All the arrangements have been
made for being gone, contacts established, and we have both turned over our
duties in the bike club to others. We spent this past weekend, well
ok...Saturday (it rained Sunday) doing a trial run fully loaded, even carrying
the 2 gal jugs of water we will need through the desert! Now the bike is
disassembled and sitting in a bike box waiting to head
west!A huge thanks to our many friends
and neighbors for helping us out in so many ways, and the many soon to be
friends for their help while we are on the road! We are looking forward to
meeting them ("TCA" - Tandem Club of America members and many others) and hope
in the future we get a chance to return the
favor!--
