ReplyDeleteYou are killing these halfs (Halves?) lately!!! How many have you done now? You should do some type of total recap post because I feel like you have been cruising through them! GOod luck!
ReplyDeleteOh man!! Crazy crazy hills!! Just have a good time! I hope you get to see something HALF as amazing as those pictures you posted. I like the medal, very unique!
ReplyDeleteYikes! Those are some hills. The only hills in Florida are bridges, and I freak out about those. Have fun! Looking forward to the photos. That's gorgeous scenery!
