Rah Rah for Raleigh

My very well used, before I owned it, bicycle is an old made in England Raleigh that we bought from the "Bicycle Man" in Wyoming, Ontario a few months ago for $35.  Martin bought his bicycle at the same time, a  John Deere, believe it or not, for $65.  We have more than got our money's worth out of these gems!  Today we rode the bikes up to The Tea Connection on St. Clare to stock up on our favourite Fall & Winter Tea, Lapsang Souchong.  This is a hearty black tea in which the tea leaves have been dried over smoking pine needles, giving it a -cozy sitting by a roaring fire on a cold day while reading a good book- feeling.  I've always said that tea is more than a beverage with me.
Me and my Raleigh back from a tea quest.
