Jasper Campground to Jonas Creek


Today was our first day of riding, something like 67 miles today. As you can see from the picture, it was a beautiful day for riding. We settled into a rhythm today that I suspect will probably be the way things go in general:

Wake up around 8ish
Breakfast
Putz
Devotions
Ride
Lunch (mid-afternoon)
Ride
Get to camp, dinner, ect.

Each of us is taking a turn leading our devotional time. Larry led the first devotion today. It ranged over three scriptures: Phil 2:5-11; 1Pt 5:6-7; 1Cor 1:26-2:2. It was a rich time for me personally, and it created great conversation on the road.

I didn't get to ride the whole day today. Each of us is taking a turn driving the van, and we settled the order by drawing straws... So, I drove first.

The 35 miles I did today felt good. I'm out of shape, but it's a happy out of shape. Ponder that.
