I Did It!!!

Today we rode the last 18 miles to the beach. It was a sight to see! The last 4 miles we rode 2 by 2 behind the van. Our last ride together as a group! It was fun but sad. We went down to the beach and dipped our wheels in the Atlantic Ocean. I have a lot of pictures to share with you. It was an emotional experience. Today has been busy packing and taking the bikes apart to pack. Tonight we will have our banquet and say our goodbyes. It is hard to even type this without tears running down my face. I just can't say goodbye to my new family. I can only say I will see you again. I know that some of my friends read my blog daily. To any of them reading this now- I had the time of my life with all of you. We bonded together as a family and I will never forget that. Thanks for all the support along the way.

To my family and friends at home- I will see you all soon. Thanks to all of Team Lisa for all the help and support. I couldn't have done this without the backup. I never worried about any of my responsibilities while I was on the road. See you all soon.
