Day 1 Summary

We are off and pedaling.  We left home  at about 5:30 am on Monday, riding to Calvin.  We showed up just in time for the photo and we were off.  Met some fun people along the way, but mainly rode with friends we made in 2008.  Jane Brouwer, Barb Mellema, Claire Elgersma, and Jan Quist.  We stayed at Sleepy Hollow State Park.  No Internet so you are getting the combo post.  I was reminded of the early routine when I awoke to find most people had already packed their tents and we're eating breakfast.  We were a little late on the draw.  Here are a few photos to show the camp.
Dinner was pulled pork, beans, and corn.  The food this year is phenomenal!
