Day 12 - 7/24 - Canton

Today was our first full day of no travel...or at least no bikes or RV travel. We did spend a good part of the day traveling between our campsite and family as we tried to get as much visiting in as possible.

After a lazy morning, dad ran his bike down to the local bike shop to have his back wheel trued up. He claims it has been out-of-round and was slowing him down...one less excuse on the next hill as I see it.

My cousin Sherill invited us over to her house for a great lunch including her homemade bread and salad with ingredients from her garden. Sherill's mom and both Sherill's and Robert's kids were also there. We had a mini-reunion and the kids did wonderful job of entertaining us as they demonstrated how to properly have a water fight while bouncing on a trampoline.

For dinner we headed back to my Uncle David's place where I got a chance to drive his tractor before going to one of their favorite local restaurants. After dinner it was time for Susan's outstanding chocolate chip cookies and ice cream sundaes as we were treated to David and Susan playing their handmade Dulcimers.
