I am behind on my blog, so today is the day to being trying to get up to date. I want to be sure to mention having a couple for dinner that are friends of my sister Debbie. Their names are Sheryl and Bryon Van Fleet. Debbie met Sheryl while working at the Oregon Caves in college. Sheryl and Bryon went to OSU, lived in Klamath Falls for a number of years while Bryon taught school, and they owned a used book store. For me, that would be a dream, to own a used book store.
Anyway, they had a huge adventure with bicycling across the United States, as older non-athletes. Sheryl wrote a book about it, including some of Bryon's hilarious narratives as well, and it is called "The Recumbent and the Upright: A Bicycle Adventure by Two Retired and Unfit Cycle Enthusiasts, That Grew into a Ride Across the Continent". It is an amazing story, and really made me laugh in parts.
They have moved to Corvallis, so Debbie made an effort to get me in touch with them. We had them here for dinner, and it was great to be able to talk with them in person. I hope we get to see more of them.
