Hi, Kat! Thank you! So that must have been you who honked and waved as you passed us.

It was a good day, cool and a bit windy. It actually rained or snowed/sleeted for a brief period or two. Light traffic compared to yesterday's frenzy. We did 25.75 miles today on comfortable, cozy roads, a recovery ride from yesterday.

At Great Brook Farm we had a nice conversation with a couple (on solo bikes) loaded up with panniers. They were doing a preparation run for an upcoming trip to France. Sharon and I are hoping to try some easy touring on the tandem this summer. That was one reason we did the run yesterday. So we took the opportunity to ask about their packing and bags and stuff.

Some pics...from yesterday. Lunch stop:



Across the road, the train station built in 1879 has seen better days.



From today's lunch stop:
