Crazy day-every day is so different.  Left after 8-staying up too late watching tv while Armand is fast asleep.  (like at home)  No trouble getting out of Lompoc-cold-in 50’s-wind at our back.  101 to 1-wide bike lane-mts on each side-few black cows standing around-no farms.  Gradual up hill-7 1/2% grade down hill for 2 miles-what a rush.  Get to tunnel & rest stop-pull in.  U-HOO-can’t believe it’s Jean & Lynn-give them a hug-went all day yesterday w/out seeing them.  Can’t believe today-bike lane now smooth-going 20-24 mph because of wind.  Get to Goleta by 12:00-stop at bike shop-put air into Armand’s tire.  He doesn’t even check mine.  Yesterday was the cemetery today is another 1st-McDonalds for lunch.  I want to keep going to Santa Barbara-go out & get phone.  Y-HOO-Y-HOO-see Jean & Lynn bike by to Motel 6.  Armand calls  Motel 6 in Santa Barbara-same price-we go on.  Get on bike path all the way to Santa Barbara.  Motel 6 ($87)-been paying $2.99 for wifi-they tell me it’s free to AARP members-no one ever told us.  Best Motel 6 yet-but no room for bikes-they are sleeping outside.  Ride bus down town & walk to warf-wind at our backs.  Pass so many clothing stores & restaurants-very few people in any of them.  Finally take 1st picture at warf-get buses back.  Stop at 7-11 for dessert.  Map rap w/Jean & watch tv.  No rain in forecast-rain only lasted long enough for me to put on my jacket twice today & then quit.
