Night before the start. Excited, scared.  Relieved that it is finally here.  Went  to Anacordes to scouut out the route. It is beautiful.  Trees.  Water.  Cool breeze.  Will dip the back tire into the water at Washington Park which is at the far west end of Anacordes.  Don't know the availability of internet for the next few days.  Heading into the mountains.  Right now  REALLY EXCITED!!!!

Getting packed for the long haul across the US.  Need to take enough stuff to make it good without taking too much stuff to make the biking more difficult.  My bike will look something like this with a lot more stuff added to it.  The back tire should be in the Pacific in about 2 weeks.  So I am still getting the hang of this and can't figure out how to have the text go above and around the picture.  We will see what is available.

Now I am starting to get the hang of it.  Hope to get more in here as i go along.
