Have you looked at a map of Ohio? We are almost to Lake Erie! I can't believe we have ridden our bikes this far. Six days to go! Two weeks ago I thought this trip would NEVER end, and now it's almost over.
Oberlin, Ohio, is another beautiful little town. Our hotel is downtown, on the Oberlin College campus. I've been walking around, looking at the great old buildings, and the beautiful grounds of this private liberal arts school. I was really looking forward to their art museum, which is nationally renowned, but it is closed today because of some unforeseen circumstances. Too bad!!
Tomorrow, Monday, we begin our last 6 days of riding. We still have 350 miles to go, with one 88 mile day left to ride. We'll ride into Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario, next Saturday, June 14. I can't wait to see Mike. He is flying up to meet me, along with good friends, Preston and Angie. We plan to check out Niagara Falls, and the Toronto, and maybe some other places, but I don't think they will get me into a museum!
Total miles so far - 1596.3, 24 days of riding, 6 rest days
