Hi Ma! Happy upcoming Thanksgiving! ... getting ready to drive to Little Orleans Maryland to meet Tym for a hike along the (fascinating historic) C&O canal, and a visit tomorrow. Could be fun to bicycle the whole way from not only Cumberland MD to DC, but from Pittsburgh to DC, and with a life partner (Tym bicycled a section of the C&O canal with his partner Alison in 2019!) ... And even with an emergent electric touring bicycle that goes 500 miles on one (lightweight) battery charge ... Maybe in the next year ... with Tym ... if I get a new bike? While most electric bikes have a range of about 30 miles for their lithium ion batteries nowadays, this one is supposed to get 300 miles between charging ... https://optibike.com/long-range-touring/"The Optibike R22 Everest Edition can go up to 300 Miles on a Single Charge" ... Will bring an veggie turkey for our hike tomorrow, and an early pre-Thanksgiving, but not necessarily warm for a picnic on the adventure! See you on Thursday, Ma, for Thanksgiving! Love, Scott

Ma, good morning! Just had my morning meditation inner releasing action on my way soon to meet with Tym, in MD but not with electric bikes yet for touring :) ... Glad to have gotten good health coverage in this asylum journey, abolitionally, love, Scott (http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2022/11/northern-goshawk-chicks.html?m=0)

Hope your hike with Tym is great and the weather is as beautiful where you are as it is here. Chris and Fracka are coming around 1:00 tomorrow. Plan to come then or a little earlier when I could use your help with a heavy plant and also fetching the food. See you tomorrow. Safe travels. Love, Ma (don't forget to check in at the desk)

Sounds good, Ma, just back from a great hike with Tym along the C&O canal between & around mile markers 158 & 159 in Green Ridge State Forest in MD. Weather all day was great starting off cold 36F but Tym was wearing shorts from the Time we met at 10am. We walked through vast expanses of forested lands, with great views toward the end and interesting insights into the C&O canal itself and its history throughout. Good to talk and visit. How was your day? I'll plan to get to your place around noon and bring the vegetarian turkey roast I made last night of which Tym and I each had a slice on the trail. I Think traveling has just gotten safe again after our meeting and hike together. Love, Scott 💕
