We started out early and again it was chilly. While it did warm up I had my leggings on all day. We went from a five lane road (center for turning) with no trees and in the plains to a two lane road between some high hills back to the plains. Meanwhile we also had a bit of a head wind and the last 7 miles we were riding into our beside a thunder and lightening storm. I got a little wet and was scared a bit but never do close that I stopped cycling. Tough day but interesting.
Along the way w played leap frog with Cats who is going to Minneapolis for her doctorate. She's on a schedule, so unfortunately probably won't see much of this delightful person.
We are staying at Double B RV Park. When we got here all three of us were a bit up in the air as to what to do. Cara was thinking of continuing but the storm and headwinds were a string deterrent. The RV Park seemed to have an outfit e, do Sarah and I were considering motel rooms. I found the owners Bob and Bobbie. A delightful couple. After telling Bob about pitching the tents he recommended we rent the cabin for $50. We all decided quickly to stay here. After dinner we joined B and B for a local kid's rodeo (or part of it). A fun day in all.
