almost at the starting line

Hi all,
Well its 2am and badly need some sleep but its not really going to be my first day on the road today as i have to take a couple of trains and then a little ride to the starting line .It would be getting late by then so i will find somewhere to get a good nights sleep and be ready for my first full day Thursday .
Yesterday a guy just walked up to me and gave me 3 bottles of spring water,someones looking after me already.The new bike is great with the trailer on the back.I am not even sure if i can take it on the second train tomorrow.I may have to plead ignorance and hope for mercy.
Bernie

    I am praying for you as well. It looks like you are going through southern Ohio, probably a good 2-3 hours from where we are. However, depending on what is happening, I will do my best to see if we might be able to hook up while you are going through the state. Let me know when you are getting close. I know a few people down that way so I might even be able to hook you up with some place to stay for the evening.

    It was nice getting to know you and I am looking forward to seeing how your journey goes.

    Grace and Peace!

    Praying for you Bernie...I know several in the area you will be in too. Let me know what I can do to help, and I hoping we can take some of the teens you met last week on a road trip to see you while you are in Ohio.
    Have a safe trip!

    Yay - Exactly what I prayed 2day - 2 days late, but God can back-date it I'm sure. I prayed that people will be jumping out of nowhere to help you on your way ;-)
