I was wrong about you, Georgia. I am sorry I was so quick to judge, but hey, I am only human. You and your lovely farms and shady tree groves. Your wonderfully cooked meals. Will you be as kind to us tomorrow as you were today ? We may just fall in love with you yet.
All in all, today was a very good day. One of the best even. We made good time arriving in Homerville by noon leaving us just a 25 mile stretch remaining. It was there in Homervile that we decided to stop for lunch. Walking in we noticed the Valdosta newspaper with our pictures on the front. The article was in the sports section and it was beautifully written. A woman even recognized us in the parking lot and began crying as she hugged us before we left for Waycross. It was quite moving.
Tomorrow we are headed to Hinesville, one day out of Savannah. I know we are getting close to the coast because we saw a fully inflated beach ball on the side of the road today. Anyways, before I leave to go to bed, I have a joke for you. For what is Waycross, Georgia named ? You have to go WAYCROSS Georgia to get there !
Forgive me. It sounded funnier in my head. Well folks. Enjoy the weekend.
Love,
John and Jamaal.

Keep up the good work and all the pedaling! Hepatitis definitely needs some attention paid to it! I wish I had known you were coming through Tallahassee but alas I didn't hear about it until you were already here! Though my organization mostly advocates to Get Tested for Hep C we also remind everyone to Get Vaccinated for Hep A and B! MY HAT IS OFF TO BOTH YOU FINE YOUNG MEN! Keep up the good work!!
Peace
