Kipling to Kennedy to Kipling to Kennedy

Doug has discovered that riding on the alternate roads brings more opportunities to see the land, meet the people and have experiences that wouldn't arise while riding on the #1 Hwy.  Doug arrived in Kennedy last night after attending a horse auction, eating lunch at the trade-it-up Paper Clip guy's house, and experiencing a sunset like he's never seen.  In Kennedy, Betty & Gord immediately took him under their wings... fed him dinner and breakfast and helped to make his tenting comfortable.  This morning there's a few problems with a bike tire that required a gas station air pump and so Gord has driven Doug back to Kipling to pump up the tire. (don't run out of gas!)  Late start but Doug expects to make it to Redvers tonight.  At least he doesn't have to give up his hour crossing the time zone until tomorrow.

Looking forward to more of Doug's writings...soon.
