Outer Banks!!

We had a nice relaxing day today! Woke up bright and early and ate a nice 6 am breakfast courtesy of Mrs. Brown's delicious cooking in Beaufort. We only did 40 miles of riding today, so we left at about 6:30 in order to catch the ferry that took us to the Outer Banks. We had bible study on the ferry this morning, which was a beautiful thing. We talked about the power of Scripture- how it truly has the power to change lives, and how it should be the basis for everything we do. We got to our camp site and got to hang out the rest of the day and enjoy the beauty that is the Outer Banks. Some people went to the beach, some relaxed and watched a movie- it was a lot of bonding and relaxing. This evening we took another ferry to Cape Hatteras to see the huge beautiful lighthouse! The most important event of the day without a doubt is the fact that everyone's bike is officially named! Gordon took awhile to warm up to the idea of naming his bike, but the deed has finally been done. Here's are the official names of everyone's bikes:

Jenna's= Latika
Marianne's= Adrian
Mark's= Frau Masi
Jon's= Pocohontas
Lewie's= Chin Cheng
Andy's= La Poderosa
Gordon's= The Duke
Shannon's= Nikki


That's all for now folks- we got an early one tomorrow, and 110 miles- keep the prayers coming!

  1. I wish you guys would've taken suggestions for bike names! Jenna....I really thought you would've went with "LaFawnda" instead. And Gordon, I don't know you, but your bike's name is AWESOME. :)
