Friendship Cake!!

When I first set out on this trip, my one worry was that I was going to run into a bunch of psychopaths as we moved from campground to campground. It seems that everywhere you look, you see stories stoking the public's furnace of fear, spreading the notion that our nation is a deeply divided and troubled place. With all that is supposedly wrong with the world, it is surprising anyone gets out of the house.

One of the beauties of travelling the country by bicycle is that you are completely dependent on the goodwill and kindness of those around you. Exposed to the nation, Jon and I have had the pleasure to have our guards melted by the amazing people we have met along the way.
