We packed up a wet campsite this morning. Camping is not my favorite thing to do and I am warming up to it. It&#8217;s part of the trip and it keeps the total cost down.  The campground was operated by Mennonites offered a lot for kids and was beautifully kept. <\/p>\n<p> We expected rain all day on our 65 mile ride to Southampton.  We got a few drops here and there along our route.  What we did get unfortunately was all day headwinds.  He headwinds made this a physically demanding day.  The highlight of the day was the Organic Bakery we stumbled across about 20 miles into the ride.  We shared a Vegetable  Pakora a slice of Strawberry &#038; Apple pie and then went back for a Porgoda, something iike a Pakora and an oatmeal chocolate cookie. Yummy.  The baker owner is an artist too. Allen took a couple of pictures. We&#8217;ve been cycling most of the trip past fields of bright yellow flowering green stalks, like fields of wheat.  I just learned that this is from what Canola oil is made from.  Really pretty. <\/p>\n<p> I&#8217;m glad that we were smart enough to treat ourselves to a room at the Quality Inn. We ordered our dinner from an Italian place that delivers. <\/p>\n<p> ~~Jodi <\/p>\n<p>    <a href=\"http:\/\/allenf.com\/blog\/?attachment_id=995\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/allenf.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/FB_IMG_1468248851650-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300px\" height=\"169px\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-995\" srcset=\"http:\/\/allenf.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/FB_IMG_1468248851650-300x169.jpg 300w, http:\/\/allenf.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/FB_IMG_1468248851650-768x432.jpg 768w, http:\/\/allenf.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/FB_IMG_1468248851650-1024x576.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/allenf.com\/blog\/?attachment_id=996\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/allenf.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/20160711_120012-169x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"169px\" height=\"300px\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-996\" srcset=\"http:\/\/allenf.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/20160711_120012-169x300.jpg 169w, http:\/\/allenf.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/20160711_120012-768x1365.jpg 768w, http:\/\/allenf.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/20160711_120012-576x1024.jpg 576w, http:\/\/allenf.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/20160711_120012.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 169px) 100vw, 169px\" \/><\/a><br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/allenf.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/07_11_16.gpx\"><img src='http:\/\/allenf.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/postie\/icons\/silver\/default-32.png' alt='default icon' \/> 07_11_16.gpx<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It rained a bit last night.
