Pats and hugs Grand Rapids

Sam et al,
Thankyou so much for your Grand reception and thrilling evening. Your bed, breakfast and concert was great. Grand Rapids was my favorite stop on the tour.
I continued my "swath" through Southwest Michigan eating local produce along the way. I have a knack for landing in towns when they have their farmers' markets. I did have one breakfast out and two doughnuts. I took the chance to pick blueberries, raspberries and blackberries. I also had a lime phosphate at a drugstore in Martin.
Could you thank Faloud et al again for me. I didn't find a restaurant quite like it anywhere else in Michigan. If you have the chance, I'd check out "Chicago Diner" in Boy's Town, "Soul Vegetarian," on 75th and Indiana in Chatham, and/or "Uru Swati," on Devon on the north side.
If you could put me up again, I might make another bike trip to Grand Rapids before the summer is through. You are welcome to stay at my parents' house or my girlfriend's place in Logan Square.
Though it's difficult to say, I think I did about 750 miles total.

Hope all is well and Grand Rapids is rockin out,
Nate
p.s. You could even pass this on to Faloud.
