Alright, so we're now in Bolivar TN. Today was a short ride, so it wasn't bad at all. Yesterday was the longest we have gone on the bike... 92 miles. wohoo!!!!! The day before that or maybe the day before that we climbed Daus Mountain. HOrRibLe!! Elevation: awful. 1 big climb in a 2-3 mile stretch. I was going so slow that I fell off my bike and rolled into a ditch and my bike came tumbling down on top of me. It was great. hahaha. Wasn't hurt, it was more funny than anything, lesson learned; get off and walk if you can only go 2.1 MPH on the bike. Also, I learned yesterday, don't do hand stands on the hay bails. I fell off one of those too. oops.
I'm on a record with flat tires. I have had 4 in the past three days. it's been amazing. Two of them happened with in 30 seconds of each other. Popsicles are a must for the long hot days.
The night before last we were in Pulaski, it was great. The Mayor had us over to his house for dinner with some of his friends. he had a pool and beer... it was awesome. And... there was a baby there, so I was a baby hog all night. sooo cute.
Anyway, I need to get better about updating this every day cause at this point all the days are running together. We reached 1000 Miles on our bikes two days ago. and we've been biking for 6 days, tomorrow will be 7 and then we finally get a day off. Maura and I have made up our very own Biking dance that we hope to teach to the team so that we can do that dance into Memphis. or actually, we're all going to go out somewhere in Memphis and then bust it out. oh it's going to be wonderful.
Alright, well I'm going, I came to the library to load pictures and the computers here won't let that happen. Hope everyone is well.

Renee,
Are you walking in Memphis? Are your feet 10 feet off of Beale? Any good blues there?
