In the end, where are you for the 4th of July? We are going to be in Norwood - food is a concern.

Looks like coral fossil to me.
3 weeks agoIt has been raining in Denver for a couple of days, solid. Snow down to 7,000 feet. Eagle is at 6,600 feet, which is where we will be in two days. It is supposed to be warming up though. I'm still sitting on the couch with a jacket and a heavy blanket. No discussion of AC here, much less at 9 PM!

1 month agoHuh - wouldn't have considered that type of tree. Thanks, Bill.

We're here one more night in Cambridge and tomorrow will be biking back to the trailer which is parked on a farm about 12 miles south of town. I guess it depends on your route. I think we'll be biking a loop down toward the Harriet Tubman visitor center and the Blackwater Refuge before circling back to the trailer. Then we load up and move to Harrington, Delware for the weekend. After that we go to Silver Spring, Maryland for 3 weeks.

We have a campground reserved for the 4th. It's near a town called Medina to the west of us. If we'd planned a little better and made our plans earlier, then we might not have had this issue, but maybe not. I remember years ago when we toured in Canada and it was their Canada Day. We'd sent our camping gear home and thought we would be staying with Warm Shower hosts or at motels. Things fell through and we struggled to find lodging along Lake Erie.
