We had tons of fun seeing, in order of appearance, Sam, Sarah, GiGi, Nate, Pat, Karen, Ken, Katie, and Micah in the Cleveland area. We are now en route to Syracuse, by way of Niagara Falls.
Stray thoughts:
- I love talking bikes, books, and music with Sarah and Sam. I could spend lots of time with them. I think we need to do more bike rides together once Sarah builds her bike. I'm in awe of her for being able to figure it out. I just go to the Angry Catfish, but should do more myself.
- My Uncle Pat creates difficult crossword puzzles. He speaks of my grandpa (his father-in-law) using the most beautiful language, while my Aunt Karen pays homage to my grandma by wearing colorful shoes that belonged to her.
- GiGi and Nate are two energetic preschoolers that crack me up. I admire their parents, including Katie, who makes phenomenal spicy shrimp stuff as they do in Spain. Yum.
- Sam is a good running partner, who makes good soda bread. Sarah gives excellent hugs and is a good scrabble opponent.
- Micah picks good lunch spots, and is a good sport.
- There sure are plenty of classic rock radio stations in eastern Ohio, the chimney of Pennsylvania, and western New York.
- The no hitchiking signs we saw today were different. Hitchhiking is okay in NY, but, understandably, the State encourages you to not pick up hitchhikers near prisons.
- I saw a big turkey.
