On Monday, Mike rode on his first designated bike trail without vehicle traffic. It was nice and wooded but lacking in civilization.
Mike did happen upon a fellow named Dirk Morgan who rents canoes and sells hot dogs. Morgan showed Mike a photo of a 200 pound rock he found in his yard that looks like a turtle head. Mike just had to have a photo! He was pretty proud o the rock, Mike said. He had even hired a geologist to come out and confirm that the rock had been carved by ancient Indians to look more like a turtle.
Mike rode to Xenia on Monday and stayed with members of the Xenia Church of Christ. As he travels farther north, Mike said he is getting more and more excited about the natural scenery coming his way soon: Lake Erie, Niagara Falls and the land of Canada.
