We only have three days to finish our preparations for the trip, and several bike repairs to finish. While on a practice ride yesterday, TJ's chain broke, so off to the Hostel Shoppe we go to get parts to fix it. Katie's bike also needed some work done on the brakes. My bike still needs the headlights and bottle cages mounted. Chris and Dad are going to replace the seat cord that ties their seat fabric on.

With school finally finished, I am beginning to feel the push to be ready to go. It has been a busy week getting grading finished, cleaning and packing up my classroom for the summer, and saying goodbye to the kids. Now I can put my focus on packing and other household preparations to leave.

I hope all of you have a great summer while we are gone having our own great time!
