I crossed about a dozen or so bridges today, and it said a lot to me about this ride....as you cross a bridge, when you near the middle height, you always wonder what's on the other side. At least that's how I approach a bridge.
So today there was a lot of anticipation during my 97 mile ride from Jacksonville to Brunswick. It helped to break up an otherwise straight and flat ride, but it also made me think about The Cann/Spence extended family and the thousand or so "bridges" they have had to cross the last six weeks. Never knowing what existed on the other side, but always dealing with whatever presented itself. I have more respect for this family than I can ever express, I don't know if I would be as strong or could keep my faith as they have....you hope and beleve you would stay strong, but until you walk in those shoes....
Say a prayer for the girls, for the family, and hold your loved ones' a little closer. Keep crossing those bridges!
As always,
Tom
