Sorry its been a long time since my last post. Its been a crazy last week... So yesterday was a mail drop again, and I want to give a special thank you to Titi Diana who sent me some ice cream money and a great card again. Its really awesome arriving after a long day of riding and getting mail. It made me really happy, and I'll be buying myself some ice cream tomorrow in Chicago.

So a couple of things before I go to sleep also... Tomorrow we have our longest day of the entire trip so far, 110 miles into Chicago. Our previous long day was 97 miles and into Bowling Green Ohio and I was dead tired after that. We had some brutal headwinds hitting us for the entire trip and I also had 2 flat tires, and I still managed to skip the second lunch/rest stop. I was pretty miserable, and I just wanted to get to the church on time.

I want to keep this post pretty brief, but let everyone know that I'm still alive and chugging along. I'm super tired right now and can't really think straight, so this post might not make much sense. I'll have a lot more free time in Chicago the next couple of days and I have plenty of stories to tell; some involving being stopped by police officers with a van load of laundry and then getting towed, and many others... I also have some riddles that I've solved while I've been biking, and I'll tell them in a later post to give everyone a chance to try...

Hasta luego
