We had our second welcome day of rest in two weeks, and got to sleep past 6:00 am. I got my cloths washed and bike tuned up. Terry decided, again, that he wasn't getting enough excerise, so did an hour run at 6:00 am.
Last night six of us rode the bus into the Santa Fe Plaza for a farewell dinner at La Fonda for Boris of Chicago, who had to leave (32 of the 42 that started in LA are planned to finish in Boston). We had a grand dinner and enjoyed Alien Beer from Roswell, NM. On the bus ride we met some colorful locals. One in particular, a Navajo we called Chief Red Hat, took a liking to us and in the end proposed to Kim, one of the lady bikers. I know it was the highlight of her evening.
We feel rested and ready for nine days of riding before we reach Abilene, KS, the third rest stop and 1500 mile point. We have only reached 900 miles out of 3400. This is really a big country we live in!

Jim,
This is the fourth message I have tried to send, but I see no evidence that you are getting them. Anyway, I am green with envy and really in awe of what you and Terry are doing. Keep up the good work!
John
What a fun time. If the Indians in NM are like the Californian Indians, Kim would do well to marry an Indian. They are RICH from the casinos here! You are amazing! I am glad that things are going so well for you.
Love you!!
