We really had a good time over the weekend with the LOTOJA crowd. The pictures are missing
John and Bob because they zipped through the feeding post where we were on their way to their support zones farther East so hopefully they they will have some pictures of themselves to post later on. Even though Norda puts a lot of work into getting ready it ends up being a positive affair when everyone says "thanks" and appears to have a good time. We hope that Beth, Jack, and Lilly are recovering from their colds and are feeling better by now. Now our assigment is to be ready for the TOU crew next weekend with some more peach ice cream, soup, and sloppy Joe's after the run.

  2. Thanks again mom and dad for all of your hard work to make LOTOJA weekend one of the highlights of the year. Converting your garage to a bike shop and allowing us to over run the kitchen really make it a great way to prepare for the long day on the bike. I'll post more photos later in the week. My full report can be found on cycleski: http://cycleski.blogspot.com/2009/09/lotoja-2009.html (linked to my name above and on the right side bar).
