Photo 1) Mr. Thai and I.. dads friend from the "old country" as he says.. ha ha.. super nice guy that drove out to find us in the pouring rain. even went out to cook some delicious food for us. couldn't have asked for a better situation.

photo 2) the group with wilson and lana, children of mr. thai. it was sad leaving peoria, i wanted to stay another day to see the city. we had a late start that morning anyways and ended up biking all night and camping in some side yard where the owner wasn't home.. ha ha..
