Dames rocket. Pretty. Invasive. Edible (pretty good, actually... Had some a few weeks back that I harvested from along the bike path. Often confused with phlox, which has 5 petals while this has 4.

Ah, but we had a perch and pickerel dinner last night that was lovely.

I've had the same thoughts, Glenn...why are we going through this stress? But some stress is okay and the benefits have been fun and interesting! Glad you are home. Hope you feel back to normal soon.

Too bad you didn't have the opportunity to have the fried lake perch breakfast at the Windjammer B&B. Truly memorable!

As Julie said, we are returned and jet lagged... both happy and sad to be home. We had some challenging hikes and moments when I wondered why we went to so much trouble to put ourselves through it, but then I read your blog and and realize the life of luxury we live while traveling! You guys are really tearing it up, and it is really impressive! Looks like a lot of interesting and beautiful areas you are going through, though the ferry boat sounds scary(!) and the smoke is certainly troubling. Thanks for keeping the updates coming!

We just got home from Scotland last night and I've been catching up on your journey. I am so impressed with both of you. You're stamina is amazing. We are also hoping your air quality is ok. Even Bloomington is experiencing bad air because of the wild fires in Canada. Thank you for your updates. So fun to read!! love, Julie

Thank you, Anne. It has taken a lot of organization...stressful and fun at the same time.
Today, June 7, we are a little worried about air quality and hope it rains tomorrow on our day off! Hope YOUR rain stops!
