November 2

Woke up to a beautiful Florida morning and began riding around 7:45am.  Beautiful sunrise and very little wind.


In about 2 hours it started to rain.  I really can't complain about the rain at this point.  The last rainy day I had was on the road to Pottstown, Pennsylvania.  And the rain down here is warm!!
It continued to rain as I rode through Jupiter Island - home of golfers Tiger Woods, Ernie Els, Robert Allenby, Ricky Fowler, and Dustin Johnson, singer Celine Dion, basketball player Michael Jordan, and many other celebrities.
This is the road onto Jupiter Island lined with Banyan trees:
The rain came down pretty hard for a few minutes so I stopped under a pavilion at the beach for a few minutes.  The surf looked pretty angry.

Even in the rain the Jupiter Island was gorgeous.  Landscape workers seemed to be at every property manicuring the grass and shrubs.
This is the main road through Jupiter Island with a golf course on the right:
Most of the homes could not be seen from the road.  The driveways took various twists and turns and there were extensive plantings to shield the homes from view.


Well the rain finally stopped and it was on to the home of my next hosts, Helen and Harry, in Lake Worth, Florida.  Only 2 more stops to go and I'll be in Key West.  Hard to believe.

  2. Ugh. Is it too late for another candidate to join the race?
