A month of reflection

On this day four weeks ago I was rather unsure what I was doing. I knew was there was a lot of pedaling involved and a wide open road ahead of me. I knew I would be homesick at times, would have many first-time experiences, and face some adversities. All of those have proven true yet I feel that even though I'm about halfway through, the best is yet to come.

Yesterday I thought about contacting the governors of each state I'm passing through for support of the campaign. In the upcoming week I will be drafting letters to them and hopefully while this first month will be known as the "month of adjustment," these next four weeks may be referred to as the "month of action."

It appears many Americans aren't ready for the clean energy revolution although science says the time is past due. We need solid leadership on the issue from the very top. Although bold decisions and swift actions might not appear popular at the present time, ultimately only the next generation will be able to decide and hopefully then, it won't be too late.
