Day Off Blues
A day off once a week is what most folks doing this recommend. And it’s been a week since my last break so I needed it. But it’s not easy. I mean there’s really not much to do and I am not one to just sit around. And being alone is even tougher.
But I got the rear shifter cable changed out on Shrek and Clunk and my AGM got some rest. I gerry rigged a bicycle work stand so the rear wheel was off the ground and I could adjust the gears.

I also cleaned and lived the chain and adjusted the brakes.
This motel is in a food desert. There’s a Wendy’s, McDs, Arby’s, and Subway. I ate at Wendy’s, first time in maybe 30 years. Bought salads and junk food at the Flying J food mart. Then I went to Subway where I was greeted (after being called to the counter from the back room) by a posted off teen who didn’t even look up at me before barking “what kinda bread ya want”. Needless to say I was not spending money there and walked out.
It’s supposed to rain all day tomorrow so it might be slim Pickens for food again as these places are a quarter mile away. Tuesday should be clear so I’ll head to Richmond IN then to Dayton. I have overnight accommodations both nights. After that…..who knows.

If I know your approximate pass through time, I might be able to meet up, possibly at Eastwood Park, where you might pick up Creekside.
