Okay so I'm going to attempt to type this entry on my Itouch. I didn't really realiZe how often parents friends and family seem to check these out so hopefully this becomes a more refular occurence.
Today we crossed into our fourth state which absolutely blows my mind. I'm going to be in st Louis on FRIDAY and I can't believe that either. I'm so excited that we get to see my hometown but also super bummed bc we come in up north so seeing the arch is questionable. Buzzkill. That's kind of what ppl want to see if they visit stl since they won't be able to check out any of the other awesome st Louis sights. But no matter what it's going to be great bc were going to be HOME!
Enough about the future though bc if there is one crucial thing bike and build has been teaching me it's definitely to take each day for everything that it is. Each new mile is a first and last. We'll never bike together from Cincinnati to columbus, IN because this trip is one long line. It's strange to stop for a second right now to think about that. When people say once in a lifetime they really do mean it. This is it!
Okay now for real going on to what has been happening lately. We had a build day yesterday in Cincinnati which was, as per usual, great. I put up roof trusses (questionable spelling) and that was really awesome. with something like a roof it's super easy to track your progress and leave the build site with visual evidence that you got a lot accomplished. That's always super satisfying. The people at the cincinnati habitat thought we dis an excellent job which is also always great to hear!
Currently in Columbus I'm listening to Noah and mark snore because they fell asleep at 745 at night. An 86 mile day will do that.
Shoot this is really disjointed...
Oh! I blew my first tire today! Thank goodness Zach had a spare or else I'm bot quite sure what I would have done. But yeah pre-tire the ride was stupendous. Full of British accents, broadway style singing, and bicycling. So good. I'm not quite sure how transitioning to "real life" is going to go after this trip. Luckily were still super far from that grim reality.
Tomorrow it's on to Bloomington which I hear is baller. It's only a 45 miler so hopefully we can enjoy all it has to offer (coffee?? I can dream)
for now it's goodbye but hopefully there will be more regular wi-fi access.
