Good Afternoon From Cedar Rapids, Iowa:
It's 1230pm on Sunday August 12, 2007.
I arrived to the Crowne Plaza Hotel in lovely Cedar Rapids, Iowa last night before dark.
I had the pleasure of having a great dinner with my new friends Nancy and Shelby Humbles. Shelby is a member of the Tayllon group for Cyberwize. Shelby and his wife Nancy were gracious hosts of Cedar Rapids.
As I type this message, I am past due to leave the room. Must update my Harley 2007 Sturgis trip blog later.
Today will ride to Harley Davidson dealerships in Cedar Rapids, Iowa and Coralville, Iowa (near Iowa City, Iowa).
After stopping to buy a local Harley T-shirt from both shops, will ride from Iowa City, Iowa to the home of Gina Maki in Cary, Illinois.
Plan to arrive at Gina Maai's home before dark and swim in her near Olympic Size outdoor (in ground) pool and soak in her hot tub.
Gina and her friend from New Haven, Conn. ran in the Chicago (half) marathon this morning and plan to be in need of a hot soak along with me.
Plan to be in downtown Chicago before 11am on Monday August 13, 2007
Until later,
Cheryl

Sturgis 2007
Good Morning Readers:
Sorry it has taken so long to write about my big Harley trip of 2007.
I am currently in Bismark, North Dakota on Friday August 10, 2007. The ride today will be from Bismark, North Dakota to Sioux Falls, South Dakota.This will be around 360 miles.
Yesterday (Thursday, August 9, 2007)the ride was from Glendive, Montana to Bismark, North Dakota. Trip was about 200 miles but left late in the day after visiting with friends and family .
The Teddy Rosevelt National park was loaded with herds of buffalo crossing hills. I took pictures and a video. The sunset was incredible across the sky in North Dakota.The day ended with a great dinner with cocktails at TGI Fridays in Bismark.
My day is starting early with swimming in the motel pool at the Fairfield Inn/Marriott in Bismark, North Dakota.
Did not get to see much of Sturgis Rally on Monday except from the highway 90.
Was able to see a nice waterfall on route 14A on the way to Gillette, Wyoming on Monday night (August 6, 2007).
I have so much more to write but must get to the pool and jacuzzi before my riding partners signal me to start packing to leave the motel.
My neck and shoulders are tight. Have not had time to squeeze in any excercise or recreation since the trip began last Friday night August 3, 2007.
Until next time. Have a Blessed Day.
