Good to Relax

After 10 straight days of riding, including over 200 miles in the last two days, we got a rest day.  Yesterday the group passed the 1000 mile mark for the trip.  This is exciting because it means we are about 1/4 of the way done.  I can't believe how fast everything is going along.  We are staying at Daniel Bartholomew's parents' house in Greenwood, Indiana.  The Bartholomews have provided us with so much food and hospitality that I think we may be a little spoiled the rest of the trip.  Yesterday I had a surprise visit from my girlfriend Kelsey and her brother Jared.  It was really nice to see Kelsey, especially since it will probably be the last time I see her until August.  I also really appreciate Jared making the long drive with her.  After doing some work on my bike today, I think I am ready to hit the road again in the morning.
