Hari 10
God is always good
10 Maret 2022, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ⛅ 63 °F
Starting the day filing a police report is obviously not good, but we trust in God who directs our pathes. Our air bnb host helped us find another place to stay and a nice Uber driver. We went to Bikes Plus, and Karen was very helpful. We called back home and Micheal at Trek (formerly summit bike shop) surprised us: as God attends to the details of our lives, it turns out they had just put together the very same bike Tim had stolen. In a time when it commonly takes 6 months to a year to get touring bikes, this is a miracle. They will ship it, and the local bike shop will assemble it for us.
We know we are just stewards of God's things (we did learn how to take more precautions), and we have prayed for the person who took the bike. We will never know all the ways God protects us. We gave our plans to the Lord, and if there is somewhere else He prompts us to go, we will., but for now, it seems He has made a way for us to continue across country.
Until we have the bike, we enjoy the delicious cuisine here! We went to coast and watched the Pelicans go fishing. Jesus tells us not to worry: He takes care of the birds, and HE TAKES CARE OF US!Baca selengkapnya

Waiting in Pensacola
11 Maret 2022, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☁️ 68 °F
We repacked and sent our first package of things we aren't using back. Not a super exciting day but enjoyed some Mexican food and did dome grocery shopping since tomorrow looks pretty cold and windy.
We enjoyed a walk on the SW Greenway, inadvertantly scaring all the sunbathing turtles back into the water. We were serenaded by the song birds!
A day for my life verses: Be joyful always. Pray continually, and give thanks in all things, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.Baca selengkapnya

Sweet home Alabama
16 Maret 2022, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☀️ 61 °F
We had the BEST DAY! Tim's new bike works great. We love the Gulf Coast! The trails through the park were beautiful and relaxing!! Flat coastland brings smiles. The wetlands and dunes are pretty, and with so much water around the peninsula- I was definitely in a happy place! We stopped at Hazel's Nook for a good filling breakfast after nearly 30 miles. We did peddle against a fairly strong wind- but we didn't get too hot. Then, another highlight- the FERRY from Fort Morgan to Dauphin Island. And who knew about all the natural gas along the coast?
We are staying at a truly delightful motel, Gulf Breeze. This island is the epitomy of an old fashioned family vacation with the natural outdoors to explore and enjoy. I am really hoping this is not our last visit to Alabama.Baca selengkapnya

Bridges beteen.
17 Maret 2022, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ⛅ 66 °F
It started with a beautiful moon setting and sun rising, watching the birds and the fish jumping on Dauphin Island. We then stopped at the lighthouse bakery for AMAZING cinnamon rolls!
We made it over the long and tall bridges off the island, thinking that was the end of the climbing - there were several more bridges over the gulf to go. We traveled nearly 70 miles. We left Alabama and are now in Mississippi. At first, I wasn't sure about Biloxi, but its white sandy beaches and being able to see the full moon and sunset over the water - I could like this :)!!Baca selengkapnya

Wind!!!!!
18 Maret 2022, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ⛅ 73 °F
Today was tough! We had a later start due to thunderstorms. We road on the boardwalk along the Gulf Coast most of the day. Beautiful white sandy beaches, but the wind was directly against us. We had our first flat tire, but Tim was prepared, and the bike shop in Warsaw IN had us taught well, and the fix went well! We had a nice picnic at the pier.
Along the Mississippi Coast, there are the grandest mansions/homes, really beautiful. The architecture is amazing, and seeing so many built on posts to avoid flooding is genius.
We ended the day with another long bridge with plenty of wind against us. We didn't have the most miles today, but it certainly was a day we worked for all of them.Baca selengkapnya

Loving rails to trails
19 Maret 2022, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☀️ 63 °F
We got started early and without coffee. We planned to stop early, but believe it or not, there are not many coffee houses in the swamps of Mississippi. We crossed over to Louisiana and promptly got another flat tire in the back. We changed that and found several little punctures in the actual tire. We had lunch in Slidell, and since we decided to avoid New Orleans, going off the ACA southern teir route, we called a bike shop in Mandeville. We set off and had the most delightful ride for 15 miles on the Tammany Trace bike trail. My dad had always loved trains and the beautiful scenery along the train route. I think of him and really appreciate the rails to trails! The spring flowers are so pretty. We were well taken care of at The Bike Path, and I have new thicker tires, back and front. We stopped at Lama's seafood and had some good fried catfish and a shrimp po boy. Since it is the weekend everything was booked, we are camping tonight, on the Tchefuncte River.Baca selengkapnya

Cold and Hot
20 Maret 2022, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☀️ 70 °F
Camping was cold down to 42 last night. We wore layers and put on winter coats, with the light of a full moon, in the middle of the night. We had great equipment, easily set up and packed, thanks to Micheal and Mark! So camping again is possible, but hopefully, it will be warmer.
We had a nice breakfast at a cafe on the river. I had a delicious blue crab omelet, and Tim went off of his usual, adding blueberries to his pancakes.
We took off, and it got hotter and hotter. Shedding layers along the way, we traveled 52 miles. We had some really nice prayer time, agreeing in prayer through our intercoms. No trails, one rural road, and lots of the time with minimal shoulder on the road - a little scary at times - God is a good protector. We found a hotel in Walker, LA, and were glad to have some relaxation. It said the temp was 76, but when I put the tent out to dry, it took only minutes with the hot sun.Baca selengkapnya

Crossing the Mississippi
21 Maret 2022, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ⛅ 72 °F
We started the day on roads with very narrow shoulders. We were going around a corner, and Tim fell to the side doing a full rollover, bike over body, down a little embankment. Thankfully, the grass was soft, and he was not hurt. The brake handle shifted a bit, but everything on him and the bike still works! As the day went on, the roads were better, but sadly, there were no trails.
We did cross the Mississippi River - real progress! We had gone 53 miles, and it was early, so we were considering doing another big chunk since it looks like bad weather tomorrow. We could not find any place to stay after this town and knew it would not be good camping. We headed into New Roads, and the wind picked up directly against us, which made the decision. We found a place on False River, a nice view, but the clouds are rolling in, so the day ended with 58 miles completed.Baca selengkapnya
