We had a last-minute change last night. We had planned to go to Corunna today and visit Shiawassee County Courthouse, but we could not find a place to stay - all the hotels were booked due to a baseball tournament. We finally decided to bypass Corunna and skip ahead to Alma. We're attending a wedding in Carson City, MI on the 30th and already had our route mapped out to arrive there on time, but now we need to make some changes. I'm hoping to work in another courthouse, but we may just take an extra day off - we'll see how things go. I'm happy to say that Jeanna, the consummate planner, is taking this in stride. Enough about the schedule...
Today was another good day - great weather, another tailwind and lots of lonely roads. I did have 3 different sections of dirt roads, but I'm getting used to them. All told I had about 6 miles of dirt and don't think I saw a single car, which was nice.
For the second night in a row, we're staying in a motel that we stayed in on last year's trip. I didn't take the exact same route as last year, but much of it was familiar and brought back some flashbacks. (The good news is I didn't experience and phantom conversations with Jeanna today)
1st one of the day - Smooth, flat, and scenic - not bad!!
