began with some farewells for those who were heading home.  For the rest of us, one last day of cycling took us through Hanover Center ('tho I blinked and missed it), onto Rennie Road, and along Route 10 into Lyme.   During a short break at Alden Country Inn, there was actually some semblance of sunshine -- for about 5 minutes, anyway.  Six of us continued on along the Connecticut River for about 5 miles, admiring views of Vermont (and one little patch of blue sky!).  We rode through a scenic covered bridge and finished the tour along Route 10 and back to the Alden Country Inn where we started 5 days earlier.  All in all, a most pleasurable, challenging, and FUN week!!
