The hard part is over.

We safely have arrived in Nashville. We got here much later than expected. Luckily the parking location was perfect and state parks let you roll in late and pay the ranger in the morning. I told brad that I think trailering the bikes feels more dangerous than actually riding them. So dumping the car is a relief. Tomorrow we will have to grab some supplies, attempt a minor repair and have a perfect start to the day.

Having some tea for me, hot chocolate for brad and cigars all around to celebrate the successful first day.

Not only is geeky technology allowing me to post this from a picnic table in a state park outside of Nashville, it also quickly provided a picture of Ben and Nicholes new baby boy! What great news! Congrats to the new parents.
