Flats, canyons, and bible study

Well it seems we still are not back on route, which kind of sucks. Placerville was further away than we thought and we are still 20 miles out, but we were told it is all down hill. The morning was a long flat ride which tool us to Lincoln for lunch. After Lincoln the hills came, which I liked. The afternoon hills weren't bad at first, but post Auburn was the death of us. Between Auburn and Cool is a giant canyon which the American river runs through. Cruising down the canyon was probably the best ride we have done to date. It was unbelievable, the views were amazing! However, what goes down must come up. Three miles straight up no break. After killing our legs to pull way to much gear up this canyon wall we took a break at a mini-mart. Although Ryan and I planned to get more than 62 miles in today it wasn't much use after the long afternoon.

On our way out of town we passed by the Cool Community Church which let us set up shop on their field..for a price. The have been very hospitable, but strongly encouraged us to attend their Bible study. So after a long day where we only want to eat and sleep we headed down for some Luke. It wasn't too bad and we got out early enough, plus now we have Jesus on our side.

Ok, tomorrow we will definetly be through Placerville in the morning, back on track, and heading to Carson City where we can gamble away all of our money. As of right now i need to rest my legs and get some sleep.
