Post for 19 June 2021
The day started with some final memories from the TransAm. I crossed the Ohio River on the same ferry my cycling group used in 2018. But this time, I crossed the opposite direction, into Kentucky instead of out.
Crossing a river felt symbolic. Pardon me for being a bit poetic, but it feels right at the moment. Crossing a river, over something so fluid, from one side to another, reminds me of the phrase, “Every new beginning is some other beginning’s end.” 
After crossing the river, I left the Trans Am and cycled west in Kentucky. The landscape and day felt different. It felt slower.
The song for today suits the feeling for the day. It’s another of my favourites, Wake Me Up When September Ends.
Waiting to board the ferry over the Ohio River
On the ferry, toward the shore I left in 2018.
Enjoyed the rolling hills
Also enjoyed the quiet country roads
The trucks at the bottom of this picture were stopped in the road, so the drivers could talk a while, slow life.
Not sure why, but I like this viewpoint.
I cycled over the old bridge on the left, with a new bridge being built on the right.
More fun country roads
Ended the day by buying some wonderful home-grown tomatoes, at a store using the honor system.
