The Buckeye State

Today I find myself in Zanesville, Ohio.  The ride to get here, although not extremely scenic, was one of the best so far.  Rather than having to deal with urban drivers or mountains, we had a pleasant 65 mile ride over mostly rolling hills in rural areas.  Zanesville has a bridge that is the intersection of 3 roads over 2 rivers, forming a "Y".  According to locals it is the only "Y" shaped bridge in the world, or "the only bridge you can make a left on," as I have been told many times.  I went to the post office today to mail some stuff home that I won't be needing, and the lady behind me in line gave me twenty dollars on the way out, just because she read the back of my jersey.  I continue to find myself impressed with kindness and generosity that complete strangers have to been showing to all of us.  I think it just goes to show how big of an impact cancer has had on so many people.
