A lovely dinner with my brother Joe, the featured image, on the Queen Mary overlooking downtown Long Beach.
We strolled the promenade deck and saw some of the memorabilia that made the Queen Mary famous. 
This artistic clock was on the mantle of the fireplace in the first class Grand Salon. The elegant wood and Art Deco trimmings and railings were amazing. I am packed and am ready to have Joe take me down to San Diego to meet my new “adopted” family. I am ever so grateful to my family and friends for the incredible generosity and support. My brother lives in this section of cycling and walking heaven. It is tough to go, spoiled I guess. Onward it is.
My roommate is Larry Sharkey from San Diego. He has done cross country solo. He is riding a Surly Long Haul Trucker. I got real fortunate. We had a big meeting with Bubba and staff.
Ride on Brother, Ride on! Be safe. Love you.
Tail winds and smooth roads!!!
