Day 23 – (AD 928) – 22.8 Miles – Jim's Trek Part IV – From Portugal to Spain On My Schwinn 170

Good Day,

Today I pedaled 22.8 miles on my Schwinn 170. My totals to date have now reached 19,509.9 miles; 31,398.2 kms. Just think less than 500 miles more to go to reach 20,000 miles.

I crossed over the Rio Guardiana from Portugal to Spain this morning.

I am located in Andalusia intersection of N-431 and A-499. All things being equal, I now have 203 miles to go to my next destination and goal point.

According to my calculation I have now completed 78.3% of my overall goal. I will be cycling Saturday and Sunday but I don't think my foot bottom will be healed right away after sliced open on Monday. Once it is healed and according to the numbers I think I would have approximately 268 pedaling days left.

Well my blood sugar jumped 9 points is morning. Last night supper was Cheese Tortellini with Spinach and Tomato and Onions. It was so damn good that I had to eat two bowls full. And of course sauce included heavy cream, whole milk, and Parmesan cheese. It definitely was worth the nine points.

I completed two of those shades of color tests online. Not sure how scientific and/or exact they truly are but… I was able to get them all correct but I did discover that I do have some time distinguishing between shades of purple and blue.

There are now 673 with individuals who filed a Statement of Candidacy (FEC Form 2) with the FEC to register as a 2016 presidential candidate. And of course the media is trying to highlight the number of times the "leading" candidates change feet. I'm just wondering when I will hear and or read something that will make me perk up and decide who I will vote for to represent the as President of the United States.

Loaf #23 is out of the oven. It is a Cranberry Raisin No Knead loaf.

No Knead Loaf #23 - Cranberry Raisin

And it tasted bloody good, especially with cheddar cheese. (Hell yes I'm still watching my blood sugar count.)
