The following is a transcription of a phone post that originally appeared in my main journal, here.

Hey final update of the day. I am in Provincetown, where I arrived at noontime after about 191 miles, and that last section wasn't bad at all. I shepherded a couple people home, which I've done the past couple years, which was good. Hung out with Emily and David and also Charlie and Matthew and just a bunch of people and enjoyed a very sunny day. 91 degrees and clear here in Provincetown; absolutely beautiful. And of course I love being out here on the cape. Just absolutely gorgeous, the bay and the ocean. Heading out to the beach today (or this afternoon) but also just want to be sure and thank everybody who sponsored me this year. It's going to be a record-breaking fundraising year and I just want to thank everyone for first of all making my ride possible, but also for allowing me to participate in something that really means so much to me. Because the battle against cancer I see as really, absolutely the most important thing that we as a society can do. So thank you very much for your help, because you played a part in this. And they say that the ride is the reward for doing the fundraising, so I'm honored by your allowing me and helping me participate in this event, because it's absolutely a great event. I think that's it for today; there won't be any more voice posts, I don't think. I may post some additional comments in my journal later, but look for the wrapup email coming out shortly, as well as photos and video, which should be an interesting new addition. But basically this year's event is pretty well done and I'm just gonna go relax now and take it easy, but thank you again for everything. And again it's been a wonderfully successful year: no problems, no aches and pains, and really it just went off fabulously. So that's the story from here, and I'll be in touch again sometime soon, and thank you once again. Bye bye!
