Hall of Honor

The adjustment to "real" life continues as I have to keep reminding myself today that I do not need to ride.  Given that the temps are in the 40s today and that rain is very likely today, one would think thoughts of riding would be far from my mind.  Yet, the opposite seems to be true as I envision my hands rubbing together in glee at the thought of an opportunity to be out there in the rain.  Surely, a few screws are still loose.

I seriously contemplated going out and riding for "just an hour," but there are things that I do need to get done besides riding.  One of which is a massage I scheduled almost three weeks ago.  The last three months of 2011 I kept putting off getting one and I'm looking forward to lying down on that table.

I don't think I will have an opportunity to get any pictures taken today but I am very pleased to post the Hall of Honor, those folks that donated to Biking for Food.  To date, over $2,000 has been received.

Thank you all very much!  I fear I may have inadvertently left off a name.  If I did, please, please let me know so that I can include you.  

I also want to thank the volunteers at Community Meals who put in their time week after week.  I find it very warming to know that the volunteer efforts at Community Meals are being duplicated every day all across the country and, thus, creating this amazing work network that silently helps not only those in need but many other community services, such as libraries (right, Colene!?).  

Last, and certainly not by any stretch of the imagination, least, I want to raise a toast to Laura Wilkins who is the director of Community Meals and does a wonderful job of overseeing the program.  

Wait, one more last but certainly not least...just because the year-long journey ride is over, it most definitely is not too late to contribute to Biking for Food and have your name added to the Hall of Honor list.
