Packing
Mike is our master packer. The B.O.B. trailer is already situated with sleeping bags, mattresses, tent and cook set. Here he is trying to sort out where things will go in the panniers and what we still need to buy on our shopping trip to REI on my birthday, Friday, June 26th.
Mom, Dad and 9-year old son Gregory are on an open-ended adventure starting with the Adventure Cycling Trans America trail. We rode East from Baker City, Oregon, through middle America, and all the way to Yorktown, Virginia riding 3,680 miles over 135 days. On Feb. 20 we headed to the South Island of New Zealand for 48 days and then on to Australia for 3 months. We are currently residing in Orland, CA and I'm writing a book about our adventures.
Several people we've met have asked if they could contribute to our grand adventure and suggested setting up a PayPal account on our blog site. If you'd like to help us with our daily expenses you can donate using PayPal. Any donation would be greatly appreciated.
