| Sharon and I met this couple
when we were cycle touring in England. Joan was heading home
after work and spotted Sharon and I sitting on a park bench (eating
as usual). After mortifying us by reiterating several times that
there was no way out of their fair village except uphill for
several miles in all directions, she invited us back to her place
for an overnight stay at their quaint thatched cottage property.
We kept in touch, and, in the summer of 2000, Joan and David
flew to Alaska for a bike trip from Anchorage to Tierra del Fuego.
When they reached Tulameen BC, they phoned, and delighted us
by staying a couple of days before resuming their southward journey. |
