Riding Day 31 – 90.4 miles Yesterday was a very relaxing day in New Orleans. The Bob and I went to the WWII Museum in downtown while Odie stayed at the hotel relaxing and catching up with his family. The museum is one of the best I’ve ever visited, and I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting The Big Easy, but understand that you could easily spend several days exploring it’s nooks and crannies because there is so much to see. The Bob and I only had 4 hours, and we only saw about a quarter of what it has to offer. After we left the museum, we headed over to the Jackson Square area and went to Café Du Monde for beignets and café au laits. We left completely satisfied and covered in powdered sugar, and then walked a few blocks to NOLA Po Boys for the main course. (Dessert first might be my new thing when I get home!). I had a grilled catfish po boy, and The Bob had a roast beef po boy and red beans and rice, all of which were delicious.
If I hadn't been in South Carolina attending my 4th grandchilds birth I would have slid over to Shepard State Park to visit. Mary and I live in Ocean Springs.
Scott, your actions as a human toward other humans speaks to your character, and your vivid writing allows us following along to share your experiences. I am so happy you took some time in NOLA to recover a bit! And at the rate you are pedaling away the miles, your epic journey of this band of brothers will be completed in under a week... I want to buy the book you could write after your bum is completely healed!!
Lots of interesting thoughts today! Thanks for sharing. Congratulations on your tire choice. Sounds like the tire companies you mentioned would love to hear your story.🚴
Dude I can only echo the other folks and what I have been saying for years. You must write...There are very few authors that can take me to places with them but you truly are one. The words just seem to flow. I normally read before bed but lately I have been reading your stories. I spend some time every year in New Orleans but it seems different from your point of view. I know I will miss this when you are done. Glad you are feeling better, take care.
The Great Day That Dawns

Scott, this was the first time your writing put tears in my eyes. Seriously, you had a great day off and touched lives.
