Fundraising Update

I never thought I would be giving an update BEFORE I even started to ride, but as of yesterday, hospice has already received $5500. I am SO VERY appreciative of all those who have donated to my cause. I can't wait to start riding. Tomorrow morning I fly to Portland. ...back to packing the last minute stuff!

Thank you all so much for your donations.

Yeah, That is so exciting! I am sorry that Don and I were unable to attend the BBQ at your home. We were out of state at a family wedding. I will keep you in my prayers for your safety and for little to no problems on the trip. God Bless, Jeana McGregor

Hi Anne, I thought of you this morning when "The Today" show mentioned that it will be 105 degrees in Portland,OR, today, but I know that you stay cool while riding and get hot when you stop - so keep riding! Sounds like you have worked hard to be ready. Good luck with your ride - stay cool and safe. I will continue to monitor your journal.
