A well needed rest day!

After 7 continuous days of riding, I decided to splurge and stay at the Old Stone House Bed and Breakfast outside of Mesapotamia, Ohio. It was a refreshing change of pace. A few luxuries I enjoyed included: a hot shower and bath, using a stove to cook my own meals, sleeping in a bed, air conditioning, a pleasant run thru the countryside, and a long afternoon nap. Indeed, it was delightful!

I also had a blessed morning ride in a horse and buggy with an Amish family that I was introduced to the previous day. I visited with Bim and Alta's family for an hour in the morning and learned much about Amish culture. Overall, I realized we are more alike than different. Oh, it was just a pleasant experience! Enjoying each other's company and sharing stories.
