We loaded our bikes onto the car and headed up to Fort Monroe on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. It is the oldest fort in the U.S. and we soaked in all it had to offer. While biking along the scenic sea wall we came along this little historical factoid and found it appropriate to take Jon's picture in front of it. We had all sorts of fun crossing the moat and exploring the fort until the bugs started feasting on Jon on the fort's overlook of the Chesapeake Bay. Just for kicks we started treating our bikes as horses and have now dubbed them "aluminum stallions." Secretly, however, I've given my bike the nickname of Caballo Loco. In Spanish it means Crazy Horse. Very fitting.
I love that place. It is beautiful!
