Central Time

My blog is back online!! I've gone back and transferred over some stuff from my other blog that can be seen below. I will try to update other stuff as we go along.

Today we crossed into Central Time meaning that we gained an hour. Our ride from Winamac to Chesterton, Indiana was only about 64 miles so it made for a short day. We did hit some strong winds from the south and going west it made for fun cycling at times - especially when large trucks coming from the opposite direction almost sent us flying off the road. (Mom - we didn't really fly off the road - don't worry!) We stopped for lunch at a small bagel shop in Valparaiso arriving around 11ish after setting our clocks back an hour. From Valparaiso it was just a short 10 mile ride to Chesterton where we are spending the night at the New Life Wesleyan Church.

After arriving a group of us went swimming at Indiana Dunes State Park. It was almost 90 out so even though Lake Michigan was cold the water felt good. We then headed to the local YMCA here in Chesterton to shower and rid ourselves of sand from the beach.

Tomorrow it is off to Chicago! It's still hard for me to believe that we've rode this far in such a short time.

Till next time,
Sandra
