It's a mighty hard row that my poor hands have hoed
My poor feet have traveled a hot dusty road
Out of your Dust Bowl and Westward we rolled
And your deserts were hot and your mountains were cold
Green pastures of plenty from dry desert ground
From the Grand Coulee Dam where the waters run down
Every state in the Union us migrants have been
We'll work in this fight and we'll fight till we win

Good morning, everyone. It's a nice Sunday morning here and I'm celebrating it with a mug of unbranded Keemun tea and some fresh croissants.

I was planning on it, but I messed up my map reading. Or rather, I forgot that the map is NOT the terrain... I planned out a 225km ride for yesterday, but didn't take a close look at the route using Google Earth. At least 75km of the road turned out to be one-lane mountain switchbacks on semi-paved road going through spectacular cedar forests following mountain streams. Beautiful to look at but incredibly tiring to ride. By the time I got home, all I wanted to do was sleep! I must be getting old!
These croissants are pretty good! And with the Keemun tea, making me 'mouth happy!'
