I ran into the ladies on the towpath yesterday. We were going to ride through the PawPaw Tunnel together, since I was staying in Cumberland at the same time. Everyone was still alive when I left them at Bill's Place in Little Orleans, but that's all I'm sayin'

Here's a shot of them "slapping the a-s-s" for good luck on Monday evening, after which DebW and Zen headed to their first campsite and 7rider and divingbiker headed back to their first hotel (l to r- divingbiker, Zen, 7rider, DebW) :



And 7rider waiting while everyone else is inside getting ice cream, just so you can see the loaded bikes:




And definitely no on-the-go blogging. There's barely even any cellphone service out thataways.
