Good-by CA, hello AZ!

We have been so lucky with the weather. Today was another clear sunny day that reached the low 80s by the afternoon. A lot of gentle uphill riding with the total for the day at 64 miles. Felt easy after a rest day yesterday. Tonight we are staying at a motel that must have been built in the 1950s.... A long line of rooms stretched out by the roadside in a sleepy little town called Salome. Our tour leader made us a pitcher of margaritas to celebrate the crossing of our first state line. I guess that margaritas are a tradition each time we enter a new state. Beginning to fall into the rhythm of riding everyday, feeling like I can do this!
