On Wednesday, day five, rode 54 miles on C&O Canal in mud and heat. All pushed through even with detours and a minor mishap along the way when a branch in the path took two riders out. (NO INJURIES) PTL. John Jordan led devotions and did a wonderful job. Kids loved the pool. Leaving soon for Fort Frederick, MD. 2 days left to DC which will be long days in the saddle. Stand firm.
