Cotonwood, AZ to Winslow, AZ (Whew, what a Day!)

I had wet socks all the way from Cottonwood, AZ to mile 78 due to the pooring rain, and couldn't see a thing trough my glasses let alone know where I was going, but could feel the hills and upgrades all day today. I took a picture of two giant spiders (you know the big hairy ones), picture of one of them is attached above. I also rode through the rain today, then sunny skies, then rain, then sunny again, then cloudy, then sunny again, etc. The weather keeps changing as I was riding through it today.

I met a woman today named Terry and she said she had four mamagrams this year, and through all the continuing testing she got so stressed-out over the testing, she quit her job and moved out to Arizona to enjoy the beauty of the earth and relax. I shared everything with her about the American Breast Cancer Foundation and when we were done talking she wanted to make a donation and was excited to learn that women nationwide were getting their screenings for breast cancer. I had a very meaningful and touching conversation with Terry and learned much from her personal journey (and she has no cancer). Every year people need to take care of themselves and be screened.

Well tomorrow we ride through the Petrified Forest (wood that has turned to rock) and will be on our way to Heber, AZ, and we will be officially 25% through over ride across America. I have taken alot of great photos and will get them uploaded as soon as I have proper internet access.

Also attached photo of the PAC tour mascot above "Bitzi".
