Grand Day for Biking - Day 30

Sun started coming out through the fog before we left camp. Another day with lots of little hills. Ed kept calling them free hills. He would get going fast enough going down the hill that he could sometimes make it to the top of the next hill. That didn't work for Sharla because she would be using the brakes going down. If there is no traffic, no wind hitting her on the side, and no curves, she doesn't use the brakes as much but that doesn't happen too often. We found a little Mexican food restaurant in Gualala to eat at for lunch.  Sharla got stung by a bee when one hit her in the face while riding and got caught between her face and sunglasses. Hurt a bit but not too bad. Made it as far as we were going to go today...43 miles to Stillwater Cove State Park. Arrived early afternoon. We were visited  by a couple tame peacocks in our campsite. Another bicyclist, Mike, joined us in the hiker/biker campground area. Around a campfire that he built, we had a great conversation and found out he is a believer as well. He is in between jobs and searching for what the Lord would have him do next. He would desire it to be doing something where he is making a difference in people's lives.
