Today is Father's Day, so Happy Father's Day, as appropriate, to any who may read this. It has been a great day for me. The ride is over and today has been a day of relaxation and spending time with my daughter, Jenny, and her family; husband Mike, children Christopher and Josephine. I also received a Happy Father's Day phone call this morning from my daughter, Jessica, who lives in North Liberty, IA. The one big thing missing is being with the love of my life, my wife Susi. I've talked to her once today from downtown Ft. Collins when the grandchildren were playing in the fountain and will talk to her again later today.
It appears the decision to end the trip in Laramie, WY yesterday was a good one after all. The smoke in Ft. Collins this afternoon is very heavy and I'm glad I'm not breathing it while biking. You can see from the photo that follows how heavy it is.
I'll have tomorrow to myself when I will write one last blog entry for this terrific trip.
A few photos from today follow.
