Yet another day in paradise - the morning scenery was lovely - a light mist/fog over the fields and a beautiful deep orange red sun rising over it all. We pedaled through more of the Michigan countryside - mostly flat and all farms. Had overcast skies for most of the ride and that helped keep things a little cooler. The humidity is increasing somewhat.
Once again I was slow to get started and picked up power as the day went on. We did have some headwinds to provide a little more challenge and as we got closer to Lake Huron, the clouds started building. I ended up getting caught in a rain shower 8 miles from the hotel. It didn't last long and my shirt was dry by the time I got to the hotel. The socks and bike shorts were not however. I enjoyed the shower - it was refreshing in its own way.
Got in by 2 pm (early for me) and can actually relax a bit. Tomorrow we ride across a big bridge into Canada (they close the bridge just for us - so we can ride across safely).
