Do you realise that the Voie Bleu now goes from Macon to Lyon and is great
1 month agoI am putting my trust in the Blue Pill, but Dodie doesn't believe in it!
1 month agoGlad you are back underway. Hope the cold is conquered.
1 month agoMade it to Tournus now! Tomorrow it's a short hop to Macon, and then we'll jump on a planned train. I think getting here to Tournus was a big hurdle now cleared!
1 month agoWe rolled in along the Saone, collapsed in our room, and have seen nothing yet! I'm intrigued now about what we'll find tomorrow!
1 month agoThanks Suzanne! Our spirits remain good, though. Oh wait. I would need to wake Dodie up to see if she agrees!
1 month agoGood news about your shoulder. Isn’t Tournus wonderful apart from the killer hill to get to the top
1 month agoWell, that was good news and bad news. I'm glad you can ride, Steve, but I'm really sorry to hear that you caught Steve's cold, Dodie. Get well soon, both of you!
1 month agoWe are both so sorry, Steve. What awful luck! As frustrating as it must be, don’t push yourself tomorrow and make things worse. Good luck!
1 month agoTragic!
Sounds like maybe an auriculo clavicular separation. In 2001 I endoed my bike, then, doing my typical bike crash tuck and roll... I only got up to my knees at first. Hospital, x-rays, sling, pain meds... Took a week or more to lift my right hand waist high. The elbow down worked fine but for the first month I had to use my left hand to grip my forearm to move my right arm. The right arm just did not function at all, but a couple months following exercises recommended by some Physical Therapists I knew got most mobility back without surgery.
Yours sounds like it is not near as bad as mine was, with the mobility you describe, so I really hope you recover faster than I did!
Ouch, that sounds like a bad fall! Take it easy, maybe a rest day? Dodie will know what's best for you. I hope you are out of pain soon.
1 month agoJust so you are not the only one dealing with feeling poorly, sore throat, fall and too many boo boos, I am having a colonoscopy tomorrow.. And just think..two weeks ago today I was in Germany. 😬 ( and, yes, did return with sore throat which morphed into a cold..) I am such a sissy.
1 month agoMore like an “ache” de Triomphe for you, Grampies 😢
1 month agoHere I was chuckling over the potty situation and then blood is involved! Here's hoping that you feel better in the morning.

That looks like Salvia yangii, or Russian sage, to me.
