Day 19 From Harley dealer to Harley dealer

In the early morning, we began our ride.

Every time it started to rain, we changed into our rain gear under the overpass.

We put on and took off helmets, because helmet regulations varied by state.

We always stopped by nearby Harley dealerships on our way to our destination.

We bought T-shirts designed by each local dealer.

I had to make a rule that I would buy only one T-shirt from each local dealer.

That’s because my luggage was already full.

We arrived at the hotel early in the evening and took a rest.

I watched a yoga program on TV.

A beautiful instructor said, ‘Feel the stretching and reaching… smile, you can feel better, become better again.’

I felt relaxed both mentally and physically.

Afterward, I did the laundry and went to bed early to prepare for the next day’s ride.
