illinois


I arrived at ORD, a dark, rainy afternoon, and rode home with my mom in 2 hours of stop and go rush hour traffic. Bienvenue...

The first few days I spent visiting my parents, making some cookies, and went for a flat, windy run.


Today we are headed toward the farm. Derek left me at a path entrance on the border of Aurora and Batavia so I could walk to Geneva, get a haircut, and buy some groceries until he finished with work. So that's what I did, walked the bike trails past Christmas tree farms, beneath gargling sandhill cranes, along the river and into town.
