WE DID IT! 620 miles -- a chunk of it at the end through the pouring rain again as if the Swamp Rats were welcoming us home. Thanks guys, we really appreciate that. The grand total for the trip: 10,044 miles. Pretty awesome I�d say.
We cut a path east through Tennessee and then north through Virginia doing nearly 80 all the way. We started at 8:30 this morning and got into Bowie, MD at 9:30 PM. Not too shabby. We were so excited to be home neither of us seemed to care that we were damp, tired and sunburned. We made no stops today except for gas. We did take one awesome picture after the rain stopped in Virginia. The clouds were just hanging in a line in the Shenandoah mountains. Very pretty. There is also a picture of Honey doing the �last pack� for the trip and of course the last picture for the day � the two of us safely home.
All in all, this trip has been amazing and one that we will surely remember for the rest of our lives. Here we sit 41 days later, healthy, happy, and engaged. :-)
We both want to thank everyone that followed our trip and posted to the Guest Book. Your comments and e-mails helped us stay connected and amused. To those we missed along the way, we will surely be in your neck of the woods again. To those we got to see along the way, one more big thank you for putting us up. We�re now looking forward to seeing and catching up with everyone here at home.
The Big Adventure has come to a close for now but that most certainly does not mean that we�re done with adventure. You never know where the next one will lead. Don�t worry � we�ll keep you posted.
To my honey, I'm proud we ride beside each other (even if it's always the PINK bike that people like). You should marry me and ride beside me forever!
