Day Two: Suffolk to Waverly

Only 43ish miles today so we made it in to the host super early. I rode sweep with Taylor which was kind of fun because we ended up catching up with a lot of different groups throughout the ride. It rained all day but we ended up on some fairly pretty roads.  I've had some trouble adjusting my sleeping patterns, so sleep at night has not been super restful, thus I've fallen asleep in several odd places. At orientation I fell asleep in the middle of a road, to be awoken by a motorcycle driving around me (it's cool, there were people standing all around me). So today's new fun sleeping spot (which was actually hella comfortable) was in the trailer at lunch break. 
Additionally, I fell dead asleep laying on top if the washing machines at the laundromat. So I'm doin' pretty we'll for myself here. 

Afterwards, we showered at a bunch of neighbors' houses and had a pretty stellar host provided dinner. We're sleeping in the sanctuary tonight, which is kind of interesting. 

Sad note: it's Natalie's last day with us before she heads off to other trips and such. We won't see her again until Oregon. I've been making up reasons to call her a jerk because I'm not a fan of her leaving. (Few people hold a conversation quite like a Natalie). So, we wrote her a song and gave her some blueberries both for her birthday and for her leaving. 

Fun fact: we're only on day two. There's so much left to experience. Woot.
