Cedar Rapids, Iowa

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
