Bicycle problems/heat ground bike
I left the SanJuans on bicycle heading for Colorado. Fifty or sixty miles down the road my bicycle broke down. I caught rides thru the Northern Cascades, which is beautiful, into Cordelene ID. I bought a bicycle for 10 dollars. It made it 100 miles south. Temps over 100 and to small of bike helped me to decide to catch rides again. I spent 2 days in Boise ID. St. Vincent Depaul gave me a voucher for a bike. Like many its rear rim was to weak for heavy travel. I've been used to 60 degree temps in coastal WA. This 100 degree desert heat is difficult for me, as far as riding is concerned. I went over 100 miles on public transit thru the Utah Valley. What a nice prosperous place. An LDS church let me spend the night n their picknick area. I've met many nice people on the road here. I've been on the road 11 days now. So many rides, so many nice people, so much beautiful scenery. I clearly heard God tell me to come here, after I asked for prayer for direction. Have a great day, and thank you for reading the site, God bless you all. Daniel

Bike lands on SanJuan
Some times you can just feel divine intruvention. I was headed down a road towards Oak Harbor WA. and I stopped at a hurch picknick and one thing lead to another and I was at a church dinner then on a ferry to SanJuan Island. They have a state park devoted to watching Killer Whales. I was on a cliff over looking the ocean and I saw about 10 of them. I think about 80 make the island's their home. Todays sign reads " Because of Him" With a large cross using the I as the upright of the cross. God is so faithfull. I had another tire and tube go out and he sent a man to help me with in hours, hes so faithful. I love you all, please pray God will lead my thought pattern, yours in Christ, Daniel
