Day 8

Check out the video links to the right. We are heading to Prairie Creek Redwood State Park tonight. The trees are getting bigger and we will have a ton of photos to upload soon!

"Mmm, that's a nice butt!" says a voice behind us as we load our bikes with oatmeal, bananas, cliff bars, some dinner items and other nutrient rich snacks we purchased from the Price-n-Pride Grocery.
We turned to find a woman dressed in a full red sweat suit, three protruding teeth and long multi-colored hair. Her eyes were locked on Dusty's rear, lured to the sight she explained, "Nice butt like that is a sure sign of a strong back!"
Dusty, misunderstanding the raspy voice, lifts up the back of his jersey and questions, "Fanny pack? No, no I am not wearing a fanny pack."
The sight of Dusty's exposed back sent the woman's arms flying up and she wheeled around heading straight inside the store's electronic doorway. As Dusty and I looked at each other trying to grasp what had just happened the woman reappeared to clarify, "And I am even a queer, that is saying a lot!"

We laughed so hard we could barely steer our bikes down the road.
