Day 7--WOD is: Rest...ish

I was unable to get the LQ again today.  I ended up meandering 30 miles to Tempe.  There is a storm coming in tonight, so the weather man says...I got a hotel once again.  I kind of had to.  My last bout with rain made me realize I need to be very prepared for it.
I got a heavy duty water repellent spray for my bags and I have put everything in zip lock bags.  I think I am water proof now.  I hope so at least.....I am going to kill some miles tomorrow. Bang them out you might even say.  These last two days have seemed like I am a bum because I have only went about 70 miles...very easy miles at that.  I am well rested now and I think it is go time.  I have a chicken salad ready for breakfast and all my bags are packed.--minus my clothes as I did some bathtub laundry tonight.  Yet again I have clothes hanging all over the place.
Jason flew off today and it has been kind of sad.  The rest of the trip just wont be the same.  I suppose I will just have to figure out how to entertain myself.  Before he left I canned his bike.....that is cannibalized his stuff.  He gave me his handle bar bag and his solar panel charger to use for the trip.  I had to do some work on my bike to make it fit, but it is good to go now. (another reason I decided on one more hotel stay.)
I went down to soak in the hot tub and met a cool family.  The father was a retired AF officer out of Davis-Monthan.  Cool dude.  His wife was super nice as well.  Their daughter is into biking as well and is soon to do some touring.  I have been amazed at how may bikers there are on my journey so far.  Good luck to you Danielle!
One last thing before I watch the back of my eyelids--Thank you Grandma Fife for your donation to the cause.  I miss you and hope to see you soon!  With that, goodnight, and get ready for some serious miles.
