Giving thanks

Every day on the bike is different. Today was long, slow, frustrating and boring, then it was swift, stunning, and exhilirating. Mostly, that change has to do with incline. Today featured the addition of headwinds.
Short list of things I'm thankful for: staying safe on the road for the last 2000 (!) miles. Drinkable tap water. Hot showers. Coffee refills. Sunshine. The surprisingly beautiful southwest. Wildlife. Schwalbe marathon tires. The kindness of strangers. The support and love of family and friends. My st. Christopher medal. Mexican food. Thank you, thank you for helping me on my way. It makes all the difference in the world.
