Arrived in Bloomington this evening. Long, long ride over the past few days. Saturday we had a great time at the Hoag's party..it was sad to leave and start the journey, but off we went. First stop on the tour was Springfield, MA where we spent the night with Brenna's Aunt and Uncle. it was great to spend some time with them. Next morning it was off to Buffalo...it was so hot on the way we had the A/C on high and Jersey was still just panting up a storm. We rolled the dice at one point and almost ran out of gas. got to Keith's around 5 and hung out, ate a great homemade pasta meal, fed the horses, watched Jersey play. this morning we left at 9 and got here at 6 local time (7 eastern). 10 hours, but we are done. The final mileage is just shy of 1,100 from the Hoag's place. tomorrow we paint and take Jersey for a long walk so he can mark some territory. more coming soon!
