Bursting with JOY For you both for acomplishing such an incredible journey and feat. Margie, I think you are the most incredible life partener. This trip would never have been half as meaningful without you next to the Doc in this DOCRIDE. It was a ride of partenership and love. Supporting the one we love in all that they love is what marriage is supposed to be. And you both did this.....and the world is better for it. |

So the journey you've taken
is done and complete.
You've peddled up mountains
in snow and in heat.
You've travelled the plains
and seen all the sights--
the mills and the farmland
and the midwestern nights.
The truckers, the people
who cheered all the way,
so you'd finish the trip
to the very last day.
You've given us pride
and inspired great hope.
Now we'll all get in line for that
wonderful 'scope!!!!
Have a relaxing trip home.
Love, Genn |

You are inspiring me to ride again after my triple mastectomy last summer (what? I got divorced too. So I lost 3 boobs within a month, but I only miss 2 of them!) Anyway, I now need to lose the "Tamoxifen 25" and you two are my muses as I log the miles and suck wind. Thanks for the gift of inspiration. You are both awesome! |

Our ODE to horses is simple as they are. I do not know about the intelligence of cows. They seem nice. But there is nothing like a beautiful, Irish horse sharing some carrots with you on a windy day. They may not be the sharpest crayons in the box but they are stunning creatures. |

I love your blog. I try to look at it every day. Your comment about cows being smarter than horses really resonated with me.
When my husband’s beloved grandmother passed away several years ago in upstate NY the service was held in a charming old church right next door to a farm.
After the service, as we walked out to the burial site, the cows stood respectfully at the fence seeming to understand and appreciate the solemnity of the occasion.
Later that night my husbands family spoke of how his grandmother always loved those cows and were convinced that they were paying their respects by nodding their heads as the procession passed.
Best of luck with your ride! Keep an eye out for those brown eyed beauties!
