Day 25 - Little Rock Day Off

I took it easy on my day off, recovering from the plague and refraining from serious physical exertion for the first time in 3 weeks. I probably spent about 2 hours in a sports bar watching the World Cup and eating pizza.
I did manage to walk up a couple flights of stairs to snag a picture of Little Rock's River Market. 
I only had to rotate about 90 degrees to get a shot of the rest of downtown Little Rock. 
I drew a quick sketch of Erin. 
And then Erin blew me away by presenting me with this drawing of Harrison. She's been working on it for almost 2 weeks now and never told me what it was. She kept it totally secret until she handed me the finished product. It's weird though because a couple of hours ago this feeling came over me and I all of a sudden knew that it was going to be a drawing of him. Even still, I was overwhelmed with happiness and gratitude from receiving such a thoughtful and perfect gift that I just started immediately crying. (Erin, I'm so glad that you are on this trip. I don't know what I'd do without you. Thank you for having my back and pushing me to keeping pedaling even when I don't want to. Oh, and thanks for making me laugh hysterically each and every day.)
The Catty Corner: Erin and I were biking to get dinner and saw a sign that read "Scenic Hill". Against my better judgement I decided to chance it, just in case there was a gorgeous view of the city at the top. I knew better. I even told Erin as we turned off onto the steep side road that it was probably just the name of a really bad apartment complex. I was right.
