Resting my weary bones!

Had a wonderful visit with Jane Baker in Tulsa. She put us up at "Jane's Place" as she calls her great home. It was wonderful to catch up with her. This ride has been amazing. It has given me the opportunity to visit with friends and family, and to let them know how much I care about them. Catching up with Jane was almost like not having been apart for so long...like we just picked up the conversation again.

My odometer ticked over 2100 miles (km) on this ride. Have been through 10 states on this tour. Now resting in Amarillo for the night. Flatest place I have seen. The plains are so vast, and the air so clear today, that it was impossible to judge distances! You could see miles, like I can in open seas on my sailboat. Clearly farm and ranch country.

Tomorrow we head for New Mexico...and I can't wait! We will stay in Albuquerque with my friend Ken Guthrie. Another CSI leader...an architect and artist and just one of the most interesting guys I have met. He is going to put us up in his restored adobe home. Should be fabulous.

We hope to go up to 4 corners and see the Anasazi and cliff dwellings. Then on to the Grand Canyon the next day...it just gets better.

More tomorrow.
