July 1, Day 2 on the Trek Home

Today’s ride was essentially a straight line from Salina, KS to Wentzville, MO just outside of St Louis. After a month of delightful twisty roads and cool dry temps, I guess we’re paying our dues with consecutive, hot 400 mile days. Our main excitement was riding past and skirting around some foul weather. We pulled in here just before the heavens opened up. Good navigation by Connie. I’ll claim clean living and fancy footwork.

Very interesting cloud
Days of I-70.

There was a curve in the road today at mile marker 272. And we encountered a sign that said steep grade about 20 miles before we got to our lodging tonight. We thought we felt something.

We are comfortably ensconced in our hotel, cool showers and food soon. Two more days and we will see Aabha, Ben and Lucas at their new home. Very much looking forward to that!
