Well it was a great morning. I woke up and some racccoons had gotten into my food bag which was zippered shut. They at all the food and went into my handle bar bag and ate all my cliff bars, they ate $40 worth of food. I could not believe they unzipped things and climbed on my bike to get my food. It may be a blessing because it will take some weight off the bike too.
Today we are riding the Mississippi Levee Trail. It was a long hot day and the wind had calmed down a little bit. We made it to Chester which is the home of Popeye and had some lunch and took a nap in the park. We continued to ride into the evening because it was cooler and we made our way to Waterloo. We found a hotel because there was no camping in the area and decided that we would make it to St. Louis tomorrow. It was an uneventful day and a great day of riding.
