Day One, Done Post

I traveled about 61.1 miles today.
I actually only went 46.1 miles today, but my post detailing the 15 mile journey from Cambridge to Olin was eaten by cyberspace monsters (I can only assume...), so I added that millage to today's post. I spent a lot of today battling headwinds and/or climbing hills. Even so, I managed to average 13.8 mph, which I consider to be a fairly respectable rate for a first day. I am staying with my old roommate's parents tonight, and they have been very kind and generous hosts. Tomorrow, I will be getting an early start on my 75 mile trek to Chester, MA. Luckily, the first chunk will be mostly down hill (my reward for today's hills). This picture is from a farm that I rested at during today's travels. It was so idyllic that part of me just wanted to camp next to that pond

Really glad to see you moving.  I am sure that you will adjust to the vagabond lifestyle rather quickly.  Wishing you dry roads and tailwinds!  

If you could post a gear list (during one of those times that my wish for dry road does not come true) it would be great.
