It is now a few days later and we are readjusting. Shaggy and Amber have graciously taken us back to Portland (in a car) to spend a few days with them, eat the veggies out of their overflowing garden, and have some grand ole company. After that, we plan to ship back our bikes and gear, take a train down to northern California and see some other wonderful faces before taking a plane from San Fran back to NYC at the end of August and going into counseling with our cats.
We are sure that the benefits of this trip will show themselves in most obvious and secret ways over a periods of years, and all we can say for now is that it was fantastic.
Thank you to everyone who has helped and supported us along the way. We hope to share more stories with you when we see you all again (and not repeat too many of the same ones). We miss you and you are in our hearts. Traveling by bike is something that we hope to do again.
Love and light to you all.

What an absolutely wonderful adventure the two of you have had. We look forward to seeing you on your return and sharing more of your wonderful adventures. Have a safe homeward journey. We thought of you on your birthday and wished you were here to share our picnic fun.
You made it! You made it!! Fantastic.Congratulations. How I envy you --- that I didn't get to do what you have done. We've seen a lot of the West, but from our car and travel trailer; not like seeing it from a bicycle. Yours makes my little six-day bicycle trip when I was 18 look like a minnie compared to a whale. We had my whole East family here Sunday except for you two and Mandy and Kristina, for a catered picnic in the back yard. Give our love to the West Coast family. Happy Birthday R and love to you both. Granddad
