Thank you, Everyone. We put on the miles in Minneapolis. I’d do most anything to pick up and move there so I could ride every mile of their famous bike highways while their 10,000 lakes whiz by. Minnesota Nice is a phenomenon; rarely is there honking, no one seems impatient, everyone has time to stop and chat. It’s a garden city, that Minneapolis. I could spend every day with my sister and her husband (I suppose we’d no longer have use for friends) exploring that city, and every evening have cocktails, hand-crafted by my brother in law, which we would sip between gales of laughter - well, this is the stuff dreams are made of. How can I get my husband on board?
After my husband flew home to work, my sister took over his Clem. She tucked away that Biria of hers and never looked at it again until I left and she rode it to work. She says her bike feels foreign to her now, and she’s making plans to order her own Rivendell. Cheviot or Clem L, that is the question! I’m still in MN, only now in in-law territory. My MIL sustained a traumatic brain injury 2 years ago and has never been the same. She seems to have developed dementia and some psych issues, necessitating a move to assisted living at the young age of 68. I’m here to take some of the burden away from my sister in law as our family navigates our new normal. It’s not going well. But always there are God’s mercies. There are bike trails here, and in free moments, I’ve been whisking the kids and their cousins away for rides to the parks and ice cream shop. I love Minnesota!!! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
