There is a 1st time for everything.....
This blog has been in the works for a while.
It's a simple blog.... a list really.
There are a lot of things I have realized on this trip as I do them for the 1st time or seem things for the 1st time... so I decided I should blog about all the things I have never done, experienced, seen, or eaten before coming on this trip.
June 2nd: I saw the Pacific Coast for the 1st time/ been to California
June 5th: Changed my 1st bike tire
June 8th: First time to see the Hollywood sign and handprints in the cement
June 12th: First time in the ER, get an IV, and be in a wheelchair
June 13th: I wore clips and pedals
June 16th: I ate/made an almond butter, jelly, banana, honey sandwich (best sandwich in the WORLD)
June 21st: Rode my bike across the golden gate bridge, pulled my groin muscle, ate a sandwich after it fell on the ground, and saw a windmill.
June 23rd: Ate a dove chocolate covered ice cream bar
June 24th: Rode my bike thru a tree
June 25th: Biked thru the redwood forest
July 3rd: Saw mount hood
other random 1st times that I can't remember the dates:
- Climb a mountain with my bike (San Marcos Pass)
- See miniature horses
- cry while riding my bike
- use chamois cream
- to bike 5 days in a row
- saw my 1st porcupine
- rode my bike 40 miles in the rain
- put almond butter and honey on a rice cake
This trip has been so amazing so far... the people we meet, the churches we are connecting with, my teammates, seeing the coast from my bike, being vulnerable, learning to live in community, seeing God bless this trip time and time again, and enjoying the adventure of a lifetime!
"Incline my heart to your testimonies and not to selfish gain! Turn my eyes from looking at worthless things; and give me life in your ways." Psalm 119:36

Raw almond butter, raw honey, with cacao nibs sprinkled on top of a rice cake is a delicious high energy snack!
