Storm Chasers

We woke this morning to a thick and heavy air.
We knew it was going to rain...but could we beat it?
We got to Ohio a bit before 7AM. Ohio entertained us all day until the last twenty-six miles.
You know how The Weather Channel shows photos and video clips of storms right before there is a weather smack down? That was us.
The storm chased us the whole way, thunder and lightening all around.
Nothing gives you twenty five mile an hour legs like a little clap of thunder.
You won't see any photos of that sky. We actually are older AND wiser...at least for today.
STATS - 105 miles, climb, climb, climb...still married.  Really - that's all you need to know...right?
Oh yes...we beat the rain.
Good morning Ohio...on the road at 6:30 AM
Clouds come and go

Tricky to see, but I wanted to be respectful.  As we pedaled by, five young girls waved as they set themselves up for a softball game in their front yard.  You can see the buggies.  The Amish have some of the most beautiful home gardens we have ever seen.
We received a friendly wave from a couple in their buggy.
Each barn...
...has a quilt pattern on it.
