We are moving at a leisurely pace across America, taking time to visit parks and monuments like the Badlands, Bear’s Lodge (Devil’s Tower), Crazy Horse, and Mt Rushmore. Since Steven is preparing for his ride and me for my Camino walk, we’ve tried to plan in periodic exercise.
Biking and walking is also a great way to explore a new area. We’ve hiked up Mt Sentinel in Missoula Montana, rode around Coeur d’Alene Lake area out of Harrison Idaho, walked around Lake Monona in the heart of Madison Wisconsin, and rode through the Minnesota farmland outside of LaCrescent. Today, after our longest drive (400 miles) we are ahead of schedule so will spend two days at a cabin in Huron on Lake Erie and do a long bike ride in the area tomorrow.
