The drive to Tennessee today was fun and uneventful. We had a small Christmas this morning with just the two of us before we got on the road. We opened our stockings (yes, Santa still fills them even with no kids in the house) and exchanged a few gifts. Even that was part of the restoration tour as we exchanged cycling jerseys we had bought for each other. The meaning in that gesture was something that only we would understand and it also kept us pointed toward next August’s Tour De Cox, the day we will also renew our vows as the culminating moment of the restoration tour.
