We just returned from a few days cycling in Nova Scotia. Gorgeous scenery, little traffic, great food, friendly people. We toured the Eastern Shore on the Coastal Route through quaint towns of Mahone Bay, about 150 miles over three days.
Lobster Eggs Benedict: You need to cycle after eating this. 
Water everywhere.
Coffee break: Licorice Twirl Ice Cream- divine!
Loons and gulls having their morning chat.
Yeah, right.

About cyclingrandma
I was a journalist (Danbury News-Times, Ct), before becoming a teacher, and continue to write for professional journals. I have written several study guides for Penguin Books and write for Education Update, a newspaper based in New York City. (www.educationupdate.com). I’ve interviewed many authors, college presidents, and scientists. I wrote “The Kentucky Derby’s Forgotten Jockeys” for Smithsonian Magazine's website, www.smithsonian.com. (April, 2009). Two essays have been published in book anthologies; one for Wisdom of Our Mothers, (Familia Books) and the other in “College Search and Parent Rescue: Essay for Parents by Parents of College-Going Students.” (St. Martin’s Press).
I was a middle school Language Arts teacher for more than 10 years and have just completed a five year grant position under No Child Left Behind in Newark, NJ public schools.
I have three children, two daughters-in law, two grandsons, and one grandchild due in August, 2011. I’m an avid cyclist, knitter, cook, and reader. I love theater, museums, and yoga.
