Busy roads, quiet roads, paved roads, dirt roads, paved trails, unpaved trails, 2 courthouses, and a tour of a closed museum sum up the day.
We requested a late checkout today because the Old Rugged Cross Historical Museum in Reed City didn't open until 1 PM. We arrived right at 1 o'clock only to find a note on the door, saying they were closed until 1:30 due to a funeral. However, the door was not locked, so we let ourselves in. All of the lights were off, and we decided we really shouldn't be there so, after a quick walk around, we left.
It was really to dark to see anything, but I did take a couple of photos as reminder that we were there.
Not much is left of the once thriving African American resort. If not for the historical marker and small park, I would not have known that I was riding though an old resort area.
Jeff TeelJeanna and Kerry,
I love it when a bird photobombs my pictures!
Looking forward to your arrival in Illinois :)
