Santa Fe, NM - Rest Day

Our second rest day of the ride.

Today is a good time to encourage you to contribute what you can to the USO.  The United Services Organization supports our troops here and overseas in many, many ways.  It's one way to help our sons, daughters, fathers, mothers, and relatives who serve in the military.  Donate here.  Thank you.

My laundry is in the washing machine at the hotel as I type this.  Up until now, I've been washing my cycling togs in the hotel sink.  Rolling the damp clothing in a towel and then hanging it up to dry works very well, but it will be good to have all clean clothes for the next leg of the trip.  The only problem is what to wear while everything else is in the wash...

repeat, repeat, repeat...
