A Ride for Ice Cream - Not!

A welcomed surprise at church today…a special poem written just for me along with a check toward my 60 for Hope ride! Someone else believes I can do this! Thank you God for early believers/supporters!

Lunch with friends.
An afternoon of relaxation talking to my adult children, reading & falling asleep on the couch.

No body aches from yesterday’s work so in the late afternoon sun Harley and I begin our bike ride. Up the hill from our house and toward Quarryville we go for some soft ice cream at Dottie’s, a local favorite.

It’s a rolling ride, but without major climbs. Nearly an hour later we arrive at Dottie’s to a mile long line. While we wait, Harley shared an athlete’s wisdom – “ice cream was strictly forbidden from soccer player’s diet. In fact, if a player on his college team was found eating it they were made to run extra laps. Ice cream makes an active body sluggish,” he said. Knowing we have another 10 miles home, I agreed to forego this longed-for treat. We head to the Turkey Hill for a refreshing drink instead.
