Dad and I are just leaving Maumee, OH (suburb of Toledo) where we biked about 17 miles on the Wabash Cannonball Rail Trail. It was flat and mostly paved so not too strenuous a ride. However, it's a beautiful, breezy day here so the weather was perfect. It's nice to get out and experience the country on a bike, instead of just driving by in a car. I almost knocked Dad off his bike trying to avoid a low-hanging branch coming right at my face...fortunately he's had enough experience with the dog getting in his way when he takes him out biking that he managed to keep it upright! Now we are headed for Mackinaw City, MI where hopefully tomorrow we will takes our bikes on the ferry to explore the automobile-free Mackinac Island (my guidebook says northern Michigan is known for it's fudge...I wonder how much Dad will sample trying to find some that compares to Grandma's...)
