But, we're in Minnesota now!! We're currently staying in Hutchinson and tomorrow we bike into Minneapolis where we'll have Friday and Saturday off before we hit the road again Sunday after church. Venture Expeditions is actually based in Minneapolis so our time off will be filled with Venture people and activities.
One of the biggest things Venture emphasizes is community, both around the world and within the organization itself. For months I've talked to a lot of the people from the office and I'll finally get to put faces with the names tomorrow. It'll be wonderful to be able to talk about the journey and cause with those we are equally as passionate about it as I am. About 7 people from the Venture community including some of the founders are actually meeting us about 30 miles out tomorrow to bike in with us.
It'll be nice to have a few days off to let our bodies recuperate a little bit. We'll get to watch fireworks on the Mississippi River, hangout at the lake, eat lots of yummy food, and SLEEP. As much as I love biking everyday, my whole body needs a break. I think more excited about tomorrow and this weekend than I am about any of the other previous days on tour.
Besides biking everyday, not much has happened. I feel like this past week the entire team has just been exhausted and blogging/journaling/updating has been really rare.
But, pictures are really the only thing people look at anyway, so here's a few for you:
Best rest stop EVER in South Dakota! Someone had TEN Miniature Australian Sheep Dog puppies with them and we got to play with them for a while.
Visiting World of Life in Hutchinson, MN today. They were gracious in preparing us a wonderful dinner and letting us stay here overnight.
