That’s very generous, David. I’d love to read it and will pass it on when done. Probably best to ship it to our permanent address (Elizabeth’s home) in Portland, and I’ll read it when we come back up in February.

And thanks so much for joining us again. Hope you and Maude (? - that old brain problem) are well. Cheers, Scott

Scott and Rachel,
I have a book I would like to send you. It is a novel, a political thriller published in 1980 and written by MacDonald Harris, who under his real name, Donald Heiney was a professor of mine, first at the University of Utah and then later at UC Irvine.
Entitled "The Miracle of Sainte Foy," almost the whole thing takes place in Conques. It very much enhanced our visit to Conques and I am pretty sure it would yours as well. You wouldn't need to return the book, it would be cool if you could pass it on but if not no big deal. But I have no physical address for you. Maybe Portland, maybe Tucson whichever you think would work best.
I can be reached at david lee alston 80 at g mail dot com.
Thanks for the incredible journal, we are looking forward to the next one.

I have the same problem with remembering where are started the day and where we are going to. It doesn’t help that Scott has created all the routes. Oh well, it helps me focus on the experience instead!

I love mine and wouldn’t want to be without it. I also have a Garmin edge 1030 plus and it pairs with the light so I can see on the Garmin when there are cars behind me and how close, it Aldo beeps when cars are approaching. I lost my mount several weeks before the end of the tour so Scott let me use his so he didn’t have one. As soon as we got back I ordered 2 new mounts that look like they should be less likely to come off. I lost mine when we were in a hurry to unload everything and as soon as I realized it I went looking but couldn’t find it.

Jacinto decided on two weeks in Palm Springs. I told him if he gets bored staying in one place the entire time, it’s on him!

Very cool. Also, we changed our plans and will be stopping at Borrego Springs for 4 nights on the way down. Weren’t you thinking of going there?

Italy sounds like an excellent choice!

Yes, I will be here most of the time you are. The stars align once more! I hope we can get together.

What a wonderful wrap up. We both loved following along. You expressed so well many of our thoughts. The fact that the air travel, no matter how well it goes is often the most tiring part of the trip. In our case, the fact that we didn’t discover bike touring earlier. The wonder and joy of being on the road, on a bike. The hope that we can continue to do it for many more years, but the certainty that we might have to do it a bit differently. Just not yet we hope. We will continue to check for any updates or Portland adventures. Welcome home! Well done.
