Each time I saw one of the neighbors, I was sure to … Continue reading Southern States Tour – Day 36

We then rode … Continue reading Southern States Tour – Day 35

The price of the class includes entry into the park for the day (keep your receipt, you’ll need it for re-entry to … Continue reading Southern States Tour – Day 32
Another day in paradise 🙂 This is day 2 of about a week off the bike and hanging with friends who live here in Key West. I get around Old Town on a bicycle and do a lot of eating out and hanging at the pool here and the local beaches. I have just a few photos today. As I spend time relaxing, I’m also … Continue reading Southern States Tour – Day 31
