We climbed a bit today, actually a lot, actually to the highest point in New Jersey – wow we made it to New Jersey. Today I biked with my dear friend Eric Stehouwer. Now, I’ve given him a very good nickname – Donkey, but not a donkey as in you would call him the bad three letter word for it, but say it with an English accent like Shrek. Donkey from Shrek, not quite as annoying, but just talks all the time – about nonsense, oh man so funny. We’ll be going up a hill (which we did a lot today) and he’d be talking a mile a minute, which most of the time I had no idea what he was saying. But I found out later that’s his strategery for getting uphill – worked for him, made me laugh – it was all good.
We had a couple cool stops today. We went up an extra climb (I was sad about it at the time) to go to a monument that marked the highest point in New Jersey. From there you could see New York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey all at once – it was high. Before all of this Eric and I stopped at “Susie’s Sweet Shop.” There was so much chocolate – the lady gave us free bailey filled truffles – mm mm good!
The goodies just didn’t stop – a local bakery in Sussex gave us free coffee and the baked goods were incredible, oh so goet zoe!
Mom: guess what? We stopped for coffee today and they had fudge just like what you and I get. The signs were even the same! Can we go for some when I come home?
