Day 10:
Beautiful day for cycling and I did ride to the American
Cancer Society AstraZeneca Hope Lodge in Boston. Nice ride along the
Charles River and the saddle sores were relatively quiet. The Senior
Manager, Angela DeMarco gave me a tour of the Lodge, gave me a Hope Lodge
t-shirt and took my picture. The Lodge is a very nice facility and I'm
sure that, by providing a place for the families of cancer patients to stay,
lessens the strain they are going through. I also spent some time on
the phone with product support at Garmin and I believe perhaps I'll
be able to start using my Garmin device like it should be used!! In the
evening I met with Tiffany Chag, the daughter of an Air Force Academy
classmate, pilot training classmate and then fellow T-37 instructor pilot, Gary
Chag, whose life was taken by cancer. One of the prime reasons for the
journey I am on. We spent a good couple hours reminiscing about her
father.
