This year's adventure was a supported tour (as in, my husband drove our stuff from place to place, then rode out to meet us on the trail) in upstate New York. We started in Fairport and rode along the Erie Canal to Brockport on day 1; then took a combination of counrty roads, bike paths and the Erie Canal to Grand Island on day 2; on day 3, we rode to Niagara Falls and did all the touristy things; day 4 took us up into Canada to St. Catherine's along the Welland Canal; day 5 was back to the US over the Lewiston-Queenston Bridge for a stop at Ft. Niagara; and then along Lake Ontario to Hamlin Beach State Park on day 6; day 7 was suppose to be ride back to Fairport, but it was pouring, so we wimped out :-( and took to sag wagon back to the cars.

I can't wait to see your photos, rebecca!
Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.

Ah, now I can. I opened thus thread yesterday on my work computer, on which I often can't see photos. Beautiful shots!
You reminded me that I really need to edit my signature to more clearly reflect that "Mary Anne" is the writer to whom I've attributed the quotation in my signature. You're not the first to think my name is Mary Anne.

Did you do the ride up the "hill" on Orcas?
We wimped out on that last summer! Took a great hike at the English Camp, instead, which rewarded us with awesome views.
The San Juans are beautiful, but it was my first experience with chip seal. I was not amused!
