Rocket is underway!

Kerry and Jeanna, hi. Thanks for looking at my journal. It is hard doing it on the phone, but I try. There is a bicycle shop in two harbors where I’ll be camping. They have a cafe and bike shop! Oh warmshowers hosts too. I’m in! I’ll make sure to visit both you mentioned. Hugs guys

Tamora they were lifesavers!!!!

Keith,
Good luck on your trip. MN & WI are two of our favorite states to tour in.
If you get the chance, check out the lighthouse and ore docks in Two Harbors - really neat! The museum Lake Itaska (headwaters of the Mississippi) is also worthwhile, not to mention having the chance to step across the Mighty Miss.

P & J got a bit smashed.... Hope it tasted better than it looks.... xoxox

Aw Brandon thank you! I hope I take the time to listen to them; I think the rail trails I'll be doing will allow that. Thank you for writing and following.

good playlist dawg

I love it so much....I remember the moment so clearly!

Beautiful beach picture on our wall! xoxox

That’s good news Greg, stay in touch!

I think your route looks great. I've actually ridden most of it on various tours, except for the Chicago to Milwaukee section. As far as I'm concerned, you'll be seeing the best of Minnesota--especially the sections along Lake Superior and the Mississippi River (between La Crosse & Lake City.)

Greg, you didn’t lead me to think anything sir! It will be nice to have your knowledge about the route, if fact how’s my route look through your area? I appreciate you writing me, I normally don’t have many followers so…. Respectively, Keith

No, I'm not on Warm Showers. I'm aware of the organization, but have never used it because I feel uncomfortable about asking a stranger to take me into their home.

Anyway, I apologize if my message sounded like an invite. As much as I'd like to, we can't really accommodate any guests this summer because we might be moving my 87-year-old dad into our house. What I meant was that I'd enjoy meeting you and guiding you through my area--as I've done for other riders on the Northern Tier and Mississippi River routes. Sorry for the confusion.

Gregory, how nice of you for the invite, I'll certainly try to make it work. I've never ridden this region so I'm excited to make the trip. Are you part of:

Chat soon!

I see you'll be riding through the town where I live--Hastings, MN. Don't be surprised if I figure out when you'll be arriving and welcome you to our fine city.
