Le Tour 2011
Congratulations to Cadel Evans
The first Australian to win Le Tour de France in the 108 years of it's history... Twice a bridesmaid in 2nd place he finally won the big one! ... Congrats also to the Schleck brothers and Thomas Voeckler who once again held the Maillot Jaune for ten grueling days.
Well this is not the grand finale I had planned for the Paris leg of Le Tour .. but being so inspired by Cadel.. I felt I should make my own Tour.. Just like Le Tour.. I will start and end in Paris.. and make my way to Rome and a few other destinations on the way... I've been so busy trying to put this together I've been ignoring my blog and yours!!! So forgive my absence and hopefully in September I'll be able to bring you some snapshots of the fun ride Tour de Ruby 2011 ...
Have A Great Week Everyone
... Hopefully I'll get back on here before I go ....

YU ARE DOING IT!!!! YOU ARE Going to the other side of the shore.....YES!!!
When I FINALLY went to Europe and then when my husband followed me there a month later, we thought, "WHAT TOOK US SO LONG?"
We could say that about anything else we endeavor to pursue; be well, be not afraid, jump in and ENJOY.
SO HAPPY DEAREST THAT YOU ARE DOING IT. You are going to have MUCH to report and tell!
LOVE IT AND MANY HUGS TO YOU DEAREST ONE! Anita

Julie I am thrilled for you that you are engaged in your own version of le Tour de Ruby!! I for one can't wait to hear of your escapades and see your amazing photography. I felt bad as I never replied to your last email to me. I can't believe the color in your tellie was going out just as your fellow countryman was winning the Tour 2011?!! Congrat's to Cadel, he is one heck of a man and cyclist. No one deserved the win more than he did. Travel safely my friend and soak up all that gorgeous scenery for all your readers.

Dear Julie,
I hope that is well and that you are having a wonderful week. Thank you for, yet again, a beautiful post that not only delights the eyes, but is inspiring... you always take us a way, even if just for a few minutes, from the business of this world, to appreciate certain things. I so enjoy my visits, even if they are not as frequent as I would like!
xx, Sarah
