Day 39 - Earrings

Day of rest in Monterey CA - 0 miles

I was wrong about our route to church. We didn't have to go down the big hill. We had to go further up it. Oh well. This morning at church we met a man named John. He and his family moved to Monterey, CA to be near a place called Point Lobos. He is an oil painter and loves to paint the coastal landscape and the Cypress trees of this area. We plan to check out Point Lobos tomorrow. You can check out his work at:


The day of rest was much needed, but we didn't know what to do with ourselves towards the end of the day. We are excited to ride again tomorrow and finish the last stretch of this ride. We still have almost 2 weeks, but it feels like we're on the home stretch.

We met a couple in Half Moon Bay that we ran into again this evening. They are doing the same ride that we are, only they split the ride every day. He rides half while she drives it, they meet for lunch, then she rides half while he drives it. They were at our camp this evening and she gave me a pair of the earrings she makes out of bicycle tubes.
