long time no write

I have not blogged in a long time, and there is so much that has happened since then. The mountains were fun, the flats were fun, and now the rolling hills are wicked awesome. When we rode into Rochester MN the ride was one of my favorites so far. It was foggy in the morning and then as we climbed into higher places the fog disappeared and the scenery was beautiful. We arrived in Rochester early, and got to take showers before visiting the Mayo Clinic, which was super awesome. The rest day was really relaxing and I am excited to bike tomorrow. More to come in a little bit.

First

I do not even know where to begin. The first day riding out of NYC was really awesome. The ride was really fun even with me hitting a dead possum. Then when we were riding in PA it was beautiful, however not even close to as beautiful as VT. Then yesterday we were riding in DE and that was really great since the ride was only 40 miles. We had our first portrait project and that was so awesome to hear this woman\'s story about her fight with breast cancer. I found myself thinking about her constantly today during our 80 mile ride. Today\'s ride was hard but fun. It was hilly and super hot- I got pretty burned. The ride was really pretty but the hills got tiresome after a while- but I have many reasons to keep pedling. Tomorrow we leave for DC and I am really excited not only to be in DC but I will get to meet up with my grandmother, sister, and dad for a bit. That\'s it. Keep sending emails they really make my day!
