      Bike Trip
      The bike trip was so much fun! I really enjoyed it a lot! There were only ten people - Patrick, Nathan, and Joel Hart, Mary Ray, Grace and Sarah Hanson, Jon Sturm, Jeremy Blackwood, Julia Cerbus, and Maria and I. But I liked it because we only had two groups - the s and the guys (at least on the way there).Wait, that's eleven. Oh yeah, Nathan joined us at Dairy Queen and rode back with us. He was at the doctor during the way there to see if he could ride. (I won't explain it, just check his blog.) It was only about 50 miles in all, and most of us were part of the bike trip to Calvin. So, we only stopped once to look at the map (at least we s did), when we got to DQ, of course, and once on the way back to refill our water bottles. At one point, Maria rode off the road, into a ditch! A little while later, someone yelled as we passed by. I turned in that direction, and when I turned back I saw that I had turned off the road, almost into a cornfield! Then, after that, Julia did the same thing! Also, when we were in Fairland, prolly like 1/16 of a mile from the Hanson's house, Nathan, Mary, Jon, and I got lost! Fortunately, Mr. Hanson drove past to find us in his truck and we made it home - the last people. :) But the whole thing was a blast and I really hope we have another one before next year!
