Day 23 - Maryland, June 13
Did you know... Maryland had the first umbrella factory in the U.S.
Today was a beautiful day in Maryland. I got to ride 100 miles with Mrs. Schroeder. Our bike trip took us along the Chesapeake bay. We had a nice cool breeze.
Do you have any idea of how many corn fields we have seen? There are corn stalks around every corner, crazy!
We spent the night with this wonderful Mennonite family. Mr and Mrs Yoder were our Warm Showers host for the evening.

Day 20 - South Carolina, June 10
Did you know... The first tea farm in the U.S. was built in 1890 near Summerville, South Carolina.
Today was my first ride with Mrs. Schroeder. We had a bumpy start. I fell off the bike today. I was fine, my eyeball is a little loose, no big deal. Mrs. Schroeder got a little more banged up. Don't worry, she still put in 60 miles for the day. We had a beautiful day riding in South Carolina. We stayed with this wonderful couple, Melinda and Ray. They let me try out their toys. They fed us a delicious BBQ dinner and let us sleep in their house. Great way to end the day.
