Meeting up with Sara and Fritz Pfaff for dinner and news from home.

So we did not get to Malta

We tried to get there (Malta) but something got in our way, the wind. A storm was pushing through, and the wind changed to be on our face at a steady 10mph or so. With or legs being sore from yesterday we only made Harlem. The heat was high and it was an easier decision because our gang of 9 friends from ACA were staying here as well. Sober made camp at City Hall and went for a swim in the town pool,  than later joined our gang of 9 for dinner. Soon after we showed up Shawn and Dave also pulled in. Shawn had a kidney transplant a year ago tomorrow and was riding with his friend to compete in the transplant Games in Madison WI.
