I learned tonight at dinner, my brother Kurt is dedicating each day he is riding to a different person or group. Monday he rode for Carl Ames. Tuesday he rode for Pam Eberly. Wednesday he will ride for those who have already passed away, including Eldon Miller, who had Parkinson’s. Thursday he will ride for all of the Caregivers. Saturday he will ride for and with Our Dad. Cool.
The ride this morning was pretty nice. Temperatures were good and just a slight breeze. Mom woke up not feeling real well but she drove SAG all morning. At about 11am we stopped for lunch. A little earlier than normal but it worked out well. After lunch, Kerri started driving the SAG and Mom stayed in the RV and Jim took her to the Dr. Turns out she has a sinus infection. They gave her some drugs and she already looked better tonight by the time we got off the bikes at the RV Park.
We crossed the real Colorado River, took a few pictures and then a few more at the Welcome to California sign.
While we were waiting on the bridge, Keith’s wife Doris stopped and gave us each one of the brownies she made for us. Yummmmm. Today, Keith completed his ride across the State of Arizona. Another accomplishment for him. It has been great having Keith along for the past week. His encouragement of us and support of Our Ride is greatly appreciated.
Guess what?! Today was windy. I sent a note to KPHO CBS 5 Weatherman Paul Horton and asked him to forecast a calm day for us tomorrow. We’ll see how he responds.
Shannon fulfilled his obligation today and wore a skirt all day. It was really nice. Read his and Kyle’s blog to see the best pictures.
I’ll try and upload pictures to the POPs Ride Facebook page tonight. Our internet connection is a little iffy.
