Paul and Timmy, new friends in Hoosick, New York! Stepped into 'Man of Kent' bar for some world series fail. My lycra tomorrow (previous nights pillow) will be soaked with tears of defeat.

Ey! Wretched day of cold!  We have been riding hard and forsaking our internet updates. Our apologies.  We stayed at a lovely woman named Tinner's house last night in Ilion, NY. We got our own rooms and didn't have to set our tent up in the rain!  That ole nasty fall rain got it's stabs at us today though.  It was 39 degrees and steady from the sky all day long.  I tried to prepare with baggy feet over my wool socks, but no matter, the rain found it's way to my toes.  Joe got another flat, #22, his personal best. After he changed it we needed a serious moral boost and warm-up. We pushed it into town for some pizza with terribly frozen and soggy extremities.  It was pretty dang hard to get riding again after the painful de-thawing process.  I changed socks, rebaggied and we road on. Fifteen miles later toes and fingers numb again. Super sucktime. Joe convinced me to ride on, but I did so with utter scorn and hate. He found humor my crabbytimeface, making me more irritated. Soon after it started snowing.  Ah well sometimes the days are crappy what-can-you-do?  We made it to a motel, threw our clothes in the dryer, watched some World Series (what a game!). Tomorrow looks to be sunny so we are going to kill it to Massachusetts.  

Rain sleet snow ahhhh

We are trekin it through New York real hard. Pastors Harold and Karen from Varysburg, NY were awesome to let us postup in there yard with our tent last night! They let us use their charming little church to cook our dindin, as well as shower us with blessings for a safe journey. Great people! We are getting rained on today a little and the nights are getting pretty chilly, but soon(ish) we will be eating lobster and drinking champagne with our friend Julian in Maine!

Last night we knocked on this lady's door who lived next to the church, as so we could notify her we were camping in the churchyard across from her house. She peered out the window through the blinds at us, and after seeing Joe's big ole scruff beard and my dirty face, she shook her head and motioned for us to leave! We camped on the other side of the church.

There was some standing water on the bike path yesterday and I went straight through it, while Joe tried to maneuver around it. Big failure. He and his bike were knee deep in swamp. Haha.

Apparently toe socks are warm, they also fit in my flipflops at camp. The little white puff ball is for balance duh.
