Days negative 4 through negative 1


None of us have blogs or really know how to do much besides read a blog (and some of us have opted out of reading for the summer), but we're going to try this anyway. Please forgive layout or link mishaps; we'll fix them as soon as we get to a place that has internet--provided we can still move when we get there.


So we've spent the past few days amassing and checking our gear. Give or take a few things, we think we're prepared for this journey. Yesterday we rode to a spot near water to dip our wheels in the water. We ran into a few problems but managed to do the dip--thanks to a new friend :) Our bikes have now been blessed by NY water, which is about all 3 gals could ask. After that, we headed over to the camping/sporting goods store to pick up the MOST important equipment: the stove and pots. There may have been a quick stop at the ice cream truck.
