The Beers

Alicia and I enjoy many outdoor activities. Alicia has long had a life goal of bicycling across America. It sounded like a great adventure to me. This was an opportune pause in our lives with a recent job loss (May 2009), so with just three weeks of planning and training - we were off.

This trek started May 24th, 2009 from Anacortes, Washington ending 65 days later in Portland, Maine (We had expected 60 days to Bar Harbor, Maine.).

Day 8. Panhandle Campground

We arrived here after riding 64 from Colville. Another hot day.
Sitting in camp is nearly unbearable, though I think the temperature
is only around 80. I really think our weariness adds to the feeling.

The Pend Oreille river is nice. We passed through Ione earlier.
Sandpoint ID is about 67 miles away. We will probably make that
tomorrow.

  1. You seem to be working to hard at having fun. Exhaustion seems to be the special word at the moment. Hope that the ride gets a little easier!
    Off to weight watchers and to find some heirloom tomatoes to plant and hopefully some buyers and sellers. Blessings Mom
