Camping...and an unwelcome discovery
Day 3 (2022-06-05) 42 miles, 453 feet (2090)

 

In no particular order, today's pictures are of the crew leaving the quality inn (again, not bad, though they were expensive), a sign apparently unfriendly hostile to cyclists, Henry explaining how to make breakfast sandwiches to the proprietor of a cute little cafe (cappuccino and blueberry muffin, wonderful) a "DELMARVA" train (first time we saw the name) and some beautiful backroads, followed by three iterations of trying to put up pete's tent without any pole, which I left at home.

The last iteration is using paired marshmallow sticks, duck-taped together w/ pointy ends covered, suspended over a rope between two trees. The rods are zip-tied to the line, so hopefully they won't shift. Worst problem is the rain fly, which has to go OVER the line, but then can't be fastened to the proper slots. Real hack solution, but hopefully it won't blow away in the night. It's all part of the adventure.

And I just watched the second half of game 2 of the nba finals... On my phone in my tent. We live in a wonderful age.
