Another state has passed beneath my feet as I roll West on Ginger's saddle. The states on this side of the country are a bit wider so I certainky won't be breezing through any of them, especially since the wind is typically coming at me, slowing my roll. Today was a short ride, just what I needed after 8 hours of roasting in the sun yesterday. I was aiming for Dubuque but wasn't sure where I would stay until late last night.
A friend of mine, Cierra found me a place to stay through Airbnb. This is also the girl that surprised her homesick boyfriend, Adrian, one of my best buds, with a weeks vacations back home with all his friends this past winter. Girl's got tricks up her sleeve, and when I say tricks I mean incredibly selfless acts of kindness.
I better get out to California soon to make it up to her before she does anything else for me! Dubuque is a cool little town. Maybe it's considered a city, sorry if I offens any DBQ natives. I heard it was quite the happening place back when Chicago was still being built up. Just another example of how being located along a major water source sets up a place for success.
I wish I had wandered back down by the river to see the day turn into night but, the room I eqs spending the night in was just too damn cozy with a massive cloud-like bed that basically commanded me to lay down and close my eyes.
