day 32

Keene NH to Salisbury Beach, MA - 96 miles This, our last day of our journey, was an emotional one.  It was bittersweet - we will miss these days together but we will have reached our goal and are ready to get back to reality.  Like most days, we had a variety of conditions and scenery.  We spent the morning riding a beautiful road through New Hampshire, a nice smooth surface, lined with trees on both sides.  After a big breakfast, we found our way to a bakery in Petersborough for big cinnamon rolls.  Julie soon met us with donuts.  We need to keep those calories up.  In the afternoon we were closer to the coast and ran into more traffic.  The scenery was more commercial and residential.  We arrived at our state park campground in Salisbury Beach at 4:00.  We toasted our journey completion with chocolate milk, our post-ride tradition, and dipped our tires in the ocean.  Our special treat for completion of the trip was a lobster dinner at Browns Lobster Pound.  We trust you will enjoy pictures of the day.
